A 70-year-old woman named Urmila was killed in a multi-vehicle accident in Delhi's Narela area after a Mercedes and a WagonR collided head-on around 8 am near Himalayas Apartment in Mamurpur. The impact pushed the WagonR into a parked three-wheeler, trapping Urmila between vehicles. The Mercedes driver, Shubham, son of a Haryana Police sub-inspector, was arrested at the scene. A beer bottle was found in the Mercedes, and investigations, including medical tests and CCTV footage review, are ongoing.
