Woman Arrested After SUV Hits Elderly Couple in Delhi
Police in the Indian capital have apprehended a 49-year-old woman following an incident where her vehicle struck two pedestrians, both aged over 70.
Police in Delhi have arrested a 49-year-old woman in connection with a hit-and-run incident that saw an elderly couple, both aged over 70, struck by a vehicle. The driver, identified by authorities as Navleen Kaur, allegedly fled the scene immediately after the collision, which occurred as the couple was walking on a city road.
The incident, captured on closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage, shows the two pedestrians walking on the left-hand side of the road. Suddenly, a sport utility vehicle (SUV) collides with them from behind, causing both individuals to be thrown into the air from the force of the impact. The footage reportedly indicates the driver's swift departure from the location.
Following the collision, the vehicle did not stop, with the driver making an alleged escape from the spot within approximately 40 seconds. Law enforcement officials subsequently launched an investigation, utilising available evidence, including the CCTV recordings, to identify the vehicle and its driver.
Authorities successfully traced and apprehended Ms Kaur in connection with the incident. The arrest marks a significant development in the case, as police continue their procedures following the serious road traffic event in the capital.
