Phone Snatcher Caught and Dragged Along Train Window by Passenger in Bihar; Video Goes Viral

Bihar, April 9, 2025 — In a dramatic turn of events on a moving train in Bihar, a thief attempting to snatch a mobile phone from a passenger ended up clinging to the train window for dear life after being caught red-handed.

The incident occurred as the train was slowing down at a station. Spotting what he believed to be an easy target, the thief reached through the window to grab the passenger’s mobile phone. However, his plan quickly backfired when the alert passenger held onto the thief’s arm, refusing to let go.

As the train picked up speed, the thief found himself dangling dangerously from the window, forced to run along the moving train or risk serious injury. The passenger, not only maintaining a firm grip, repeatedly struck the thief on the head while shouting, “Trying to steal, are you?”

Bystanders captured the entire incident on video, which has since gone viral on social media, drawing mixed reactions. While many hailed the passenger’s bravery and quick reflexes, others expressed concern over the dangerous consequences of such confrontations.

Authorities have yet to confirm the identity of the thief or whether any legal action has been taken. However, the incident serves as a powerful reminder for passengers to stay alert and cautious while using mobile phones near train windows, especially in crowded or slow-moving areas.

Railway officials have once again urged travelers to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity immediately to onboard security personnel or railway police.
