"The accident took place on Tuesday afternoon when the car veered off the road and hit the woman as she was walking along the roadside. The woman received injuries. Her brother and uncle reached there shortly after the incident and took her home. They informed us that they will visit the police station to file a formal complaint," the official reportedly said.

DCP Shivaji Pawar detailing on the incident to PTI said that the car was a white Wagon R which hit the victim named Rekha around between 3.30-4 pm on June 12.

Naykere is reportedly the son of a police official.
