Pune: 2 dead, 2 injured as car crashes into BRTS bus stop ramp

PUNE: A teenager was among two men killed on the spot and two other youngsters were critically injured when their SUV crashed into an exit ramp of a Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) bus stop at Kharadi near Pune in Maharashtra around half-past Wednesday midnight.

Senior inspector Bharat Jadhav of the Airport police told TOI on Thursday, "The SUV, driven by Chandannagar resident Sanket Ramchandra Bhujbal (22), entered the BRTS track and proceeded in full speed towards Wagholi when its driver could not control the four-wheeler and crashed into the bus stop ramp."

"Bhujbal and Om Pawale (17) of Kasba Peth, seated next to him, died on the spot while their friends, Gaurav Sanjay Sathe (22) of Wagholi and Prafulla Manchi (21) of Chandannagar, seated in the rear, sustained critical injuries, and are undergoing treatment at a private hospital on the Ahmednagar road," he said.

Bhujbal's father is a supervisor with a private firm at Lonikand, police said.
