Man Attacks Cop with Knife in Tamil Nadu
A man tried to hurt a police officer with a knife during a big festival at a temple in Tamil Nadu.
The police officer was trying to stop the man because he was being mean to other people.
The man was very angry and chased the police officer.
The police caught the man and took him to the police station.
The man might be sick in his mind, so doctors are checking him.
This happened right after another bad incident where some young people hurt someone else.
Some people are worried about safety at big events, but the police say the man was not drunk.
A man attempted to attack a police constable with a knife during the Vaikunta Ekadesi festival in Tirupur district, Tamil Nadu.
The incident occurred outside the Veeraragava Perumal Temple where a large number of devotees had gathered.
The man was allegedly abusing devotees, prompting the police constable to intervene, which led to the aggressive attack.
The police secured the man and took him to Tirupur South Police Station for further investigation.
The man appears to be mentally ill and is under medical observation; further action may be dropped if doctors confirm psychiatric issues.
