New Delhi : A 22-year-old woman was killed and at least six people were injured after being mowed down by a car in the Ghazipur area of east Delhi on Wednesday, police said.
Following the incident that took place at around 9 pm, locals vandalised the erring vehicle and thrashed its driver, who sustained grave injuries in the attack and has been hospitalised, they said. A 17-year-old polytechnic student was driving the car.
The accident took place on Wednesday night when a Hyundai Aura rammed into shops in the crowded weekly market leaving Sita Devi (22) dead. Another teen in the car managed to escape, an official said. The polytechnic student is in police custody and legal action being taken. The accident was caught on CCTV camera. Irate crowds smashed the vehicle's windscreen and windows and tried to break its doors before flipping it over.
"We are investigating under what circumstances the two minors got the car for driving,” the officer said. The car, used for an online taxi service, is usually driven by Neeraj who has been asked to join the probe along with the owner Rajkumar. A case under the Indian Penal Code sections 279 (rash driving) and 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) has been registered at Ghazipur Police Station, police said.
