In a tragic incident in Bhavnagar, Gujarat, two pedestrians lost their lives when a speeding SUV, driven by a policeman’s son, plowed into them during a reckless race with a friend. The horrific crash, captured on CCTV, occurred around 4 pm in the crowded Kaliyabeed area, leaving a trail of devastation.

Harshraj Singh Gohil, 20, son of Assistant Sub Inspector Aniruddha Singh Vajubha Gohil, was behind the wheel of a white Creta, racing a friend in a red Brezza. Authorities report Harshraj was driving at a staggering 120-150 km/h when he lost control, striking pedestrians Bhargav Bhatt, 30, and Champaben Vachani, 65. Both victims died instantly. Bhatt, recently married and employed at Madhu Silica, was reportedly heading to work.

The SUV also collided with a scooter, injuring its two riders and bursting the vehicle’s tires. Several other vehicles were damaged in the chaos. The injured were rushed to Sir T Hospital for treatment.
