A police officer attempting to stop three youths on a motorbike in north India was dragged along the road for around 500 metres before falling off.

The incident took place on a road in Sonipat, Haryana on February 10, after the officer tried to halt the motorbike that was riding in violation of traffic laws.

Footage from another vehicle shows that two of the three youths riding the bike were dragging the neck and arms of the Home Guard officer on the tarmac.

The injured Home Guard is being treated at Khanpur Hospital in Haryana district.
