Bandra police have arrested an autorickshaw driver for assaulting a seven-year-old boy for allegedly stealing money from his vehicle. The matter was brought to light by an actor-comedian who recorded the incident on his mobile phone and alerted Mumbai police on Twitter.

"I was on my way to purchase some grocery around 3.30 pm on Tuesday when I heard the sound of a tight slap. I saw a man hitting a minor boy who then started bleeding from on his nose. I captured the incident on my phone and tweeted it, and tagged the Mumbai police," Sundeep Sharma told mid-day.
