A wedding in Maharashtra’s Amravati turned into a scene of chaos when a groom was stabbed on stage, prompting the videographer to chase the attackers using his drone.
As per a report by NDTV, the incident took place on Monday during a wedding in Amravati. The accused, identified as Ragho Jitendra Bakshi, approached the stage during the ceremony and allegedly stabbed the groom three times. Panic spread instantly across the venue as guests attempted to comprehend what had happened. The attacker then fled the stage area, running toward the exit.
In a surprising turn of events, the wedding videographer, who had been filming the ceremony, reacted swiftly. He immediately directed his drone after the fleeing attacker. The drone footage, now viral, shows the device following the suspect, who was seen wearing an orange hoodie.
Moments later, the attacker reached a motorcycle parked outside the venue. Another individual, dressed in black, joined him and both attempted to speed away. A relative of the couple can be seen in the footage running behind them, trying to stop their escape. The drone continued to track the motorcycle for nearly two kilometres, capturing the route the duo took as they fled.
