Undeterred by the gunfire, the women police officers, including Suman Singh, Chanda Yadav, Sangeeta Yadav, Princey Pandey, and Pianka Singh, courageously chased down the criminal. As he continued to shoot at the officers, the women police team demonstrated extraordinary bravery by retaliating with gunfire, ultimately hitting the miscreant in the leg. This caused him to fall from his bike and led to his subsequent arrest.
