New DelhiA former army lieutenant bludgeoned six people to death with an iron rod Tuesday in a killing spree that sparked panic in a northern Indian city.
Naresh Dhankar, 45, began his murder rampage in a hospital in Palwal then walked the citys streets picking victims at random, police said.
Three watchmen were among those who died in the attacks. He attacked a woman at a hospital first. We rushed there and as we were scanning the CCTV footage we got to know that more bodies had been found, said police spokesman Sanjay Kumar.
The accused has been arrested and is currently undergoing treatment at a hospital, the spokesman told AFP.
