The police on Saturday arrested a seven-member gang from Tamil Nadu allegedly involved in several cases of two-wheeler thefts under Chittoor Urban, Rural and Pakala police circle limits during the last six months, and seized 10 motorcycles from them in multiple raids. Addressing a press conference here, Deputy SP (Law and Order) N. Sudhakar Reddy said that three special parties were formed to investigate a series of vehicle thefts in the district. After a thorough probe, the special teams nabbed seven accused and seized 10 motorcycles at different locations in Chittoor police division. Mr. Reddy said the inter-State gang used to steal motorcycles parked at isolated places or in front of houses during the night and dispose them of to gullible customers at throwaway prices.
