A video of three youngsters performing bike stunts on the road and posting them on Instagram led the Attapur police to track down and arrest the trio, and seize their motorcycles.

The three, aged between 19 and 24, were seen riding Honda Dio scooters without registration number plates near Pillar No. 257 in Attapur on the night of October 6.

Police said the riders were speeding and performing dangerous stunts on the road, putting other commuters at risk. Videos of the stunts were subsequently uploaded on Instagram.
