Angry at her boyfriend, a minor girl climbed an 80-feet tall tower of high-tension power line in the Gaurela Pendra Marwahi district of Chhattisgarh, India.
The situation got worse after her boyfriend also decided to follow her to the top of the tower. The incident was captured on video and is making rounds on social media.
Some local villagers noticed the duo atop the tower and immediately alerted the Pendra police station. The families of the couple were also informed about the incident. A large crowd of villagers had gathered around the tower by the time the police arrived.
