The creepy video captured an Indian man attacking a woman with an ax after she complained to police about her unwanted advances.
The surveillance video shows the attacker arriving on Monday with the scooter in front of the woman’s house in the Meerpet region of Hyderabad, immediately after another woman handed her a child, Daiji World reported.
The attacker, identified as 26-year-old Rahul Goud, is seen running after the victim as she flees inside the house with the child. Another camera captures the chaos that followed inside, as he hacks it before fleeing.
He was caught the next day.
The woman was hospitalized with injuries to her palm, forearm and shoulder. He expects to survive.
Goud, described as a family friend, had been harassing the woman for some time and tried to force her into a relationship even after he learned she was married, according to the report.
She recently filed a complaint with the police and he was arrested – but after being released on bail, the angry man launched the ax attack, police said.
Deputy Police Commissioner Purshottam Reddy said Goud had been charged with attempted murder.
