Sirohi: Car Hits Bike, Two Brothers and Toddler Killed; Mother-Son Critical

A speeding car rammed into a bike near Holagara on the Sirohi-Kandla highway, within the Anadra police station area of Sirohi district, late on Sunday evening around 7pm. The collision killed three people and left a woman and her child injured.

Five people were riding on the bike — a couple, their two children and a relative — when the car, coming from the direction of Sirohi, struck them. The impact was severe enough to send the car out of control, and it crashed into the wall of a petrol pump located by the roadside, causing panic among bystanders.

According to police, the group on the bike was travelling from Boki Derli towards Chandela village at the time of the crash. A crowd gathered at the scene soon after the accident. On being informed, Anadra Circle Inspector Amra Ram reached the spot with a police team and had the injured taken to the Anadra Community Health Centre.
