Drag and Run Incident: A food delivery executive was killed last Sunday in Noida after being struck by a car and dragged him for more than 1 km.
Around one in the morning on New Year’s Eve, Kaushal Yadav, an employee of Swiggy and a resident of Mainpuri, Uttar Pradesh, was riding his bike past the sector 14 flyover in Noida when it was struck by an unidentified car.
The two-wheeler was struck by the car, which then pulled the rider about 1 km further to Shani Temple, where the driver came to a stop before driving away.
