One of the victims narrowly escaped being crushed after managing to move out of the car's path but sustained serious injuries. The other rider was critically injured after the minor allegedly drove the car over him, leaving him trapped beneath the vehicle.

The CCTV footage also shows bystanders rushing to the scene and lifting the car to rescue the trapped victim. The injured were identified as Rajkumar (60) and Prabhakar (55), who were on their way to church. Both sustained severe injuries and were admitted to separate private hospitals for treatment.
Following the crash, the minor allegedly attempted to flee the scene. However, local residents chased him down, caught him, and reportedly assaulted him before handing him over to the police.
According to police, the minor found the car keys inside the vehicle after it had been cleaned, took the car without authorisation, and drove off. Madhuranagar Police have registered a case and launched a further investigation.
