Two people, a man and a woman, were killed after a luxury Porsche car hit a two-wheeler in the Kalyaninagar area of Pune city during the wee hours on Sunday, police said.
Police said they received a call around 3:00am about the accident near Ballr Pub. Pune City police commissioner Amitesh Kumar had earlier issued guidelines according to which bars, pubs, restaurants, and rooftop hotels are to be closed by 1:00am.
Police said they detained the driver of the car, a minor, who is the son of a prominent real estate developer.
“We have detained the minor for medical examination to ascertain if he had consumed alcohol”, Pune city deputy commissioner of police Vijay Kumar Magar said.
Social media users shared a video of onlookers beating the car’s driver, which went viral. While attempting to leave the scene of the collision, he was stopped by onlookers, who beat him before giving him over to the police.
