Mohali, December 21

A 21-year-old motorcycle-borne food delivery boy was crushed to death by a recklessly driven SUV in Phase 9 here this evening. Four unknown youths, occupants of the car, fled the spot after the accident. The vehicle crashed into a roadside railing before hitting a nearby bus queue shelter.

The front portion of the vehicle was badly damaged. Eyewitnesses said the occupants of the car were in an inebriated state and there were liquor bottles in the SUV. The motorcyclist was injured and rushed to the hospital. The police reached the spot and impounded the SUV, bearing a Haryana registration number. Investigating officer Amarnath Singh said, “The victim was taken to the hospital. The police have impounded the vehicle.” Eyewitnesses said the motorcycle was badly damaged. — TNS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
