A 30-year-old man was killed after his motorcycle collided with another bike at a traffic signal in south Delhi, police said on Thursday. The man identified as Piyush Pal, a documentary filmmaker, died of his injuries at a hospital later, they added.
The accident that took place around 10 pm on October 28 was captured on a nearby CCTV camera. The video shows the filmmaker's motorcycle changing lanes on a busy road near Panchsheel Enclave when it is hit by another bike coming up behind him. As the bikes collide, the filmmaker's motorcycle skids and is seen dragging on the road for a few metres.
Police said they found the filmmaker lying in a pool of blood and rushed him to the hospital where he later died during treatment. Pal worked as a freelance filmmaker in Gurugram and lived in south Delhi's Kalkaji.
