Washington:
The teenager son of a Congress leader from Andhra Pradesh died in an accident in Florida after the car he was travelling in skidded off the road and plunged into the water.
Venkata Sai Reddy Ragidi (17) and his sister Mounika Ragidi (19), native of Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh, were visiting Florida along with a friend Harika Gunna Reddy (25), a native of Naperville, Illinois, when the accident took place, said the Telugu Association of North America (TANA).
Harika, who was driving a Nissan Sentra, steered the car into the grassy median of State Road 405 near Orlando, Florida.
When she tried to re-enter the roadway, Harika over-corrected and her car skidded over the right shoulder and overturned and entered the water submerging all three people in the car last Thursday.
