Woman Smashes AC Coach Window in Anger Over Purse Theft, slams police for inaction | Watch video
Chaos erupted on a train when a woman, reportedly targeted by a purse thief, violently broke the window of her AC coach in frustration over what she described as police and staff inaction. The viral video shows the distressed woman repeatedly striking the glass of her compartment, ignoring pleas from fellow passengers to stop. Shards of glass scattered across the coach while passengers on the platform watched in disbelief. Shockingly, a small child, believed to be her own, was sitting beside her throughout the outburst.

While criticism of her actions was widespread, some observers suggested that extreme stress or potential mental instability may have influenced her behavior. “She looks mentally unstable, genuinely,” one comment read, highlighting the mixed reactions the video has prompted.
