New Delhi: Early this morning, a Hyundai in Delhi toppled over on a large road in central Delhi, a street light jammed right through the middle of the car in a terrible accident.
There were five people in the car, all in their 20s, who had driven from Haryana to Delhi to attend a friend's wedding. The driver and the person riding shotgun have died. Two of the others are fighting for their lives. The third is safe with no major injuries.
The accident took place near Delhi's famous ITO, a major landmark with income tax and police headquarters.
Police sources say the driver, identified as Kashish Anand, tried to dodge a motorcycle that was trying to over-take the car. He then allegedly lost control of the Hyundai, which rammed into a large divider and somersaulted. A street light then came crashing down on the car.
