Tyre burst leads to bike hitting tempo; 24-year-old dies on the spot

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar:

A 24-year-old man lost his life on the spot in a road accident on Saturday around 12 noon on the Shivur–Vaijapur road, in front of the Agricultural College at Khandala, after a tyre burst caused his motorcycle to crash into a tempo. The deceased has been identified as Bhagwan Ganpat Ingale (24), a resident of Shirodi Aurala in Kannad tehsil.

According to details, Bhagwan Ingale was travelling towards Vaijapur on his motorcycle (MH 20 HD 2269) when a tyre suddenly burst, causing him to lose control of the vehicle. The motorcycle then collided head-on with an oncoming tempo (MH 20 GZ 0025). The impact was so severe that the motorcycle was completely mangled.

Locals immediately rushed him to the Vaijapur sub-district hospital in an ambulance, where doctors declared him dead on arrival.

The deceased, Bhagwan, was the only son of his parents. He is survived by his mother, father, and a sister.

Police have taken both vehicles into custody, and a case has been registered at the Vaijapur Police Station.
