According to The Times Of India, the deceased was a delivery agent by profession. Initial investigation has revealed that the incident took place between 7.30 pm and 8 pm, when the biker and two of his friends were on a leisurely outing.
The report says that the biker tried to speed to escape the car as it chased him. At one point, when he slowed down at a curve, his friends jumped or fell off the vehicle. When the car finally rammed the bike, only the deceased was on it. The crash tossed him into the air, causing him to hit an electricity pole and a building's compound wall. He was reportedly not wearing a helmet and thus sustained severe head injuries.
Sarjapur Road Rage Incident
The incident comes just days after another road-rage episode in Bengaluru went viral. In the Sarjapur Road area, a miscreant harassed a couple inside their car and broke the windshield after the vehicle allegedly took a turn without the indicator. Desperate screams of the couple, who pled that they had a baby inside the car, went unheard. The incident took place near the 1522 Pub on Sarjapur Road.
The video, initially posted by the X handle Citizens Movement, showed a bike-borne man stopping the car and demanding that the driver step out. When the driver refused to roll down the window, citing the presence of his family, the man began attacking the vehicle. The distressing footage also captured the child's cries from within the car.
Bystanders attempted to intervene, but their efforts were in vain. The situation escalated, leading the couple to eventually reach out to the police for assistance.
