A stargazing night out on Versova beach turned into a nightmare as two friends were run over by a speeding car on Tuesday morning. One of the friends lost his life while the other is injured and undergoing treatment in the hospital. Though the driver fled the scene, the police managed to arrest him using a video recorded by a morning walker which helped identify and trace the car. The victims, Ganesh Yadav, 35—a resident of Shivsakti Sangh near Versova beach—and Bablu Shrivastava, were rushed to the hospital following the incident, but Yadav succumbed to his injuries during treatment.
