The Madhya Pradesh police on Thursday used tear gas cannisters to arrest three history-sheeters, who had allegedly escaped after committing a robbery in Jhansi of Uttar Pradesh, an official said.

The police went to the area to arrest the accused, who were brandishing country-made revolvers, the official said.
