Anand: Three persons were killed after their motorcycle rammed into a tractor-trolley in Gujarat’s Anand district, police said on Tuesday. The incident occurred near Ambakui village in the district at around 10 pm on Monday, an Anklav police station official said.

“The motorbike was trailing a tractor-trolley which was speeding ahead of it. Brakes applied by the tractor driver caused the motorbike to hit the tractor-trolley from behind,” the official said. The three motorbike riders — identified as Manhar Parmar, Ranjit Padhiyar and Naresh — died on the spot, the police said.

The Anklav police registered an FIR against the tractor driver and a probe was underway into the incident, they added. A man under the influence of alcohol rammed his car into nine people in Jaipur, Rajasthan, killing three and seriously injuring the others, police said.

According to the police, the car had earlier crashed into several vehicles. While fleeing the scene, the driver was involved in accidents at three different locations. Eventually, locals caught the driver and beat him up before handing him over to the police.

“A hit-and-run case was reported from the Nahargarh area on Monday. Nine people were involved in the accident and brought to the hospital. Two people have died,” said the local police earlier. However, another person succumbed to his injuries on Tuesday morning, taking the toll up to three.

The accused, Usman, struck a motorcycle, a scooter, and a total of three vehicles in a row, causing mayhem in a narrow, over-crowded lane in Nahargarh. Eyewitnesses claimed that several pedestrians narrowly escaped, screaming in panic as the car swerved wildly. The incident occurred around 9:15 pm on Monday.

Soon after the incident, chaos ensued as locals rushed to help the injured and took them to a nearby hospital. Police further stated that people eventually managed to catch him. The victims who died in the accident have been identified as Mamta Kanwar, 50, Awadhesh Pareek, 37, and Virendra Singh.
