The car with a Jammu and Kashmir registration number was noticed by villagers last night following which they gave it a chase.
The occupants of the car then locked the vehicle and ran away, Senior Superintendent of Police Pathankot Rakesh Kaushal said.
Police have launched a hunt for the occupants.
“Once the car is unlocked, we will be able to find details about its occupants,” he said.
