Law student allegedly kills 1, injures 10 in drunk drive Porsche crash

Supreme Court advocate Vijay Anand’s son V Vikas allegedly killed an autorickshaw driver and injured 10 others in Chennai when his Porsche car rammed into 12 parked autorickshaws while drunk driving, reported several media.

Vikas and his co-passenger in the Porsche were saved from any injuries after airbags in the car deployed, and they escaped the crash unharmed, reported the Hindustan Times.

Vikas, who is reportedly a 22-year-old law student, has now been arrested by the police, according to the Indian Express.

Some of the autorickshaws were almost reduced to a crumped heap when the incident happened at around 330am today at Chennai’s Cathedral road, reported NDTV.

Vikas and his friend, a former Indian cricketer’s brother, were returning home after attending a party thrown by team Tuti Patriot which won the Tamil Nadu cricket premiere league, reported Deccan Chronicle.

Lawyer Janhavi Gadkar, who in 2015 while working at Reliance Industries as an in-house lawyer killed two while allegedly driving drunk in Mumbai, will likely appear in court tomorrow for charges against her to be framed.
