The rampage continued as the car struck more vehicles, finally coming to a halt near Mankapur bridge after hitting a Polo car. The Polo car occupants pursued and stopped the Audi, handing over Hawre and another occupant, Ronit Chittamwar, to the police.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Chandrashekhar Bawankule has acknowledged that the car is registered to his son Sanket.
