New Delhi,UPDATED: Aug 16, 2025 12:44 IST
A 40-year-old man was killed when an SUV collided with his motorcycle in West Delhi's Moti Nagar area, local police said on Saturday. The incident occurred late on Friday night.
The victim’s younger brother said the incident occurred while Bechu Lal was on his way to the hospital. He had parked his bike behind a truck near a signal when a Thar came from behind and hit him, killing him on the spot.
After hitting the bike, the Thar mounted the footpath, collided with an electric pole, moved ahead, and then hit a stone seat built along the roadside wall. The vehicle finally came to a stop a little further ahead.
Police are examining nearby CCTV footage to determine the speed of the Thar.
The driver of the SUV fled the scene following the incident,
"The driver of the Thar fled immediately after the incident. Legal action is being taken, and multiple teams have been formed to apprehend him," a senior police official told PTI. Police have registered a case and are reviewing CCTV footage.
Officials have informed the victim's family and sent the body for post-mortem.
Earlier this month, a pedestrian was killed, and another was injured after being run over by a Thar near the Gyarah Murti landmark in the Chanakyapuri area.
The incident took place when a white Mahindra Thar coming from the direction of central Delhi swerved towards the pavement and struck the two men.
