Police arrested one suspect, Suraj Chalwadi, while the rest are hiding. The group — Pravin, Suraj, Khaja, Krishna Nair alias Johnny, Laxman, and three unidentified persons from Birla — reportedly formed an unlawful assembly after objecting to a goods rickshaw blocking the road.

Charges include simple rioting, rioting with a deadly weapon, and attempt to murder.
