Hyderabad: A 17-year-old boy allegedly rammed a rented car into a scooter after losing control of the vehicle, killing a 60-year-old man and injuring his 55-year-old brother in Karmika Nagar under Madhura Nagar police station limits on August 2.
According to police, the deceased was identified as Raj Kumar, while his younger brother Prabhakar sustained injuries and is undergoing treatment. Raj Kumar was critically injured before succumbing, while Prabhakar reportedly suffered a leg fracture. Both were travelling to church on their scooter when the crash occurred.
Police stated that the car was being driven by Ali Ahmed Khan, a minor and Intermediate student from Borabanda. The vehicle had been rented earlier on Sunday by individuals who drove to Karmika Nagar, washed the car, and left the keys inside while using the washroom.
The minor, passing by the location, decided to drive the unattended car. He lost control, hit several parked motorbikes, crossed over to the opposite side of the road, and rammed directly into the scooter carrying the brothers. Madhura Nagar police registered a case, took the minor into custody, and initiated a detailed investigation into the incident.
