Staff Reporter

CHENNAI: Two students of a private college were arrested on charges of damaging public property in Aminjakarai on Monday. Police said the two youths, Yuvaraj and Suresh, along with a few other students were waiting at the Siddha College bus stop, Anna Nagar. While a few students boarded a MTC bus plying between Mogappair West and T.Nagar a few others were left waiting, as the bus started moving.

Angered by this, the students allegedly pelted stones on the bus, damaging the left windscreen on the rear side, police said. A schoolgirl, sitting on the rear side sustained a minor injury after glass pieces fell on her.
