Nagaur, Rajasthan | July 14, 2025
What started as an ordinary morning walk turned into a tragic nightmare for two residents of Sanjay Colony in Nagaur. A high-speed car came barreling down the street and ran over two unsuspecting pedestrians from behind — a scene so brutal that it was caught in chilling detail on a nearby CCTV camera.
The victims, identified as Nathuram and Devisingh, were walking along the roadside when the vehicle struck them without warning. The impact was so severe that both men were thrown onto the road. Shocked bystanders rushed to their aid and immediately informed the police.
Kotwali police arrived at the spot within minutes and shifted the severely injured men to Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Government Hospital in Nagaur. But the tragedy didn’t end there. As doctors referred both victims to Jodhpur for advanced treatment, Nathuram succumbed to his injuries en route. His body now rests in the mortuary, awaiting post-mortem.
Devisingh continues to battle for his life.
Speaking to the media, police outpost in-charge Gumanaram said, “The car didn’t just hit them — it ran over them. Both men were critically injured. Nathuram couldn’t survive the journey to Jodhpur.”
This wasn’t just an accident. It was a wake-up call. A stark reminder of how a moment’s recklessness can shatter lives.
Locals are demanding stricter traffic surveillance in the area and immediate action against the driver, who is reportedly still absconding.
The CCTV footage has now become a crucial piece of evidence in the investigation, and authorities are using it to trace the car and identify the driver.One moment of speed. Two lives changed forever. One gone too soon.
