Miracle in Vasai as six-year-old survives hit-and-run accident, walks home after being run over
by Ekta ChaubeyA six-year-old boy miraculously survived after being run over by a car while playing.
The incident took place in the Vasai area of Palghar district, Maharashtra, on December 25.
Footage shows a cab, carrying passengers, running over the child while making a turn. Incredibly, the child stood up on his own after the accident and walked home, while nearby children quickly rushed to his aid. Shockingly, the driver of the car did not stop and fled the scene.
According to reports, the child suffered severe injuries and was rushed to the hospital. The child, identified as Raghav Kumar Chavan, also known as Chhotu, has been admitted to Valvadevi Hospital for treatment, where his condition is said to be critical.
A local businessman, who recognized one of the passengers in the cab, reportedly contacted the driver about the incident. Initially, the driver denied any involvement, but after being shown the CCTV footage, he agreed to cover the child’s medical expenses. However, he later turned off his phone and failed to visit the injured boy at the hospital.
The police have filed a case against an unidentified individual and are working to locate both the vehicle owner and the driver. “We are attempting to identify the car’s owner and determine who was driving the vehicle,” a police official stated.
