A nine-month-old girl was killed allegedly after being hit by a speeding car outside her home in the New Palam Vihar area here, police said on Thursday.
According to the complaint filed by the girl's father Rupan Kumar, a native of Bihar, his six-year-old son along with his sister went out on a street outside their rented home on Wednesday afternoon, they said.
