In Chikkaballapur, a young man who was performing risky stunts on top of Avalabetta hills and sharing videos on social media was cautioned by the police. Following this, he created a new video advising others not to imitate his actions. To prevent accidents at Avalabetta hills, where many young people engage in dangerous stunts and filming, the Chikkaballapur police took steps to restrict access to the area and warned individuals about the risks involved. The hills, located 80km from Bengaluru under the jurisdiction of Peresandra police station, are a popular spot for youths to showcase their daredevil feats on a protruding rock. Law enforcement noticed a video of a youth hanging perilously from the rock's edge on social media, prompting them to locate the individual, Bagalkot-based Akshay Kumar, and bring him to Chikkaballapura for questioning. Akshay Kumar, a recent graduate preparing for competitive exams, expressed remorse for his reckless behavior and appealed to the police for leniency. Following his apology, he was released after recording a video message advising people to refrain from performing dangerous stunts at Avalabetta hills.
