Having interviewed the witnesses on the scene, the car hit several people on the pavement and then hit a few motorcycles. The driver of the car attempted to get away from the scene, and in the process, the car became out of his control, locals later mobbed the three men, all of whom were in their 20s.

The Nagpur police have caught the three, which include Sunny Chavan, Anshul Dhale, and a third unknown person. Police seized three beer bottles and ganja from inside the car, which means the driver was probably under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

Of the seven injured, three had critical injuries, they include a woman who has a broken leg, her three-month-old baby who is still unconscious, and another man who is said to be in critical condition. As for the rest of the people, four of them got injured slightly.
