The Gurgaon police arrested a person late on Sunday night for snatching a car,less than an hour after the car was snatched. The second accused managed to flee,the police said.
The incident took place when cab driver Rahul picked up two MNC executives in his Mahindra Logan car from the domestic airport.
On his way to drop the executives in Gurgaon,Rahul was stopped by a maxi-cab near IFFCO Chowk. Occupants of the maxi-cab allegedly misbehaved with the three,forced them to get down and fled with the car.
To trick the cab driver and the executives,the accused took a U turn and drove towards Delhi. But soon,they took another U turn under the Shanker Chowk flyover,got on to the Expressway and drove towards Jaipur, investigating officer at the Sector-29 police station said.
But on the flyover over IFFCO Chowk,the carjackers hit a Maruti van,which turned turtle. Incidentally,the accident took place right above the spot where the car was snatched.
As Rahul had informed his office,the police had reached the spot by now. Accused Monu,a resident of Kasan village,was arrested.

We have registered a case against him for robbery and attempted murder, a police officer said.
