Three Friends, Including Two Minors, Die in Motorcycle-Truck Collision Near GurugramPreviousNext

Three friends, including two minors aged 14, died after their motorcycle collided with a truck near the Kherki Daula toll plaza on the Delhi-Jaipur Highway early Monday. The rider, 19-year-old Navneet Kumar, lacked a driving licence, and none wore helmets. They were returning from a night outing when the motorcycle hit a truck making a U-turn. All were hospitalized with severe injuries; two minors died later in the day. Police have registered a case and are investigating using CCTV footage.
