A 43-year-old man employed at a software company was arrested by the Mulund police for rash driving and colliding with two auto-rickshaws and injuring four people, including two auto-rickshaw drivers and two passengers. The accused allegedly fled the scene but was later held by the police. Following his arrest, police grew suspicious when they could smell alcohol on him. To confirm if he was drunk, they have taken his blood sample and sent it to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) for testing.
According to the police, on the morning of July 22 at 6.15 am, an Audi driver was driving recklessly and hit an auto-rickshaw head-on. This caused the auto-rickshaw to collide with another one from behind. The incident occurred on Dumping Road in Mulund West. Instead of assisting the injured, the driver fled the scene, leaving his mobile phone behind. “A total of four people were injured in the incident and were taken to the hospital where they were treated and later released,” said a police officer. “A case was registered based on a complaint from Prakash Jadhav, and an investigation was started,” he added.
