Kalamboli police have registered an FIR of attempt to murder against the acccusd unidentified car driver and have launched a manhunt for him.

As the car driver later applied brakes, the constable fell off the car bonnet and his right heel got fractured. The incident was captured by the CCTV camera surveillance at the road junction.
