A Class XII student, who was riding his motorbike without a licence and a helmet, was run over by an MTC bus near MMDA Colony on Wednesday morning after being hit by another two-wheeler.
Police who identified the deceased youth as A Alagu Sundaram said he was going to an ATM kiosk when the accident occurred.
Sundaram usually took a bus to school. On Wednesday morning he asked his friends to wait at the bus stop while he went to the ATM booth near his house. He was 200 metres from hishouse, at MMDA Colony Main Road junction, when a biker rammed his two wheeler.
He lost control of the bike, fell down and came under the rear wheels of a MTC bus (15G). He died on the spot. The MTC driver abandoned the vehicle and fled. A few passersby informed the Anna Nagar traffic police who sent his body to the Government Kilpauk Medical College and Hospital for postmortem.
The Anna Nagar police registered a case of causing death due to negligence against the unknown biker and the MTC bus driver and launched a hunt for both. “We checked the CCTV camera footage and found the involvement of both biker and MTC bus,” said an investigating officer.
“Sundaram was a state-level chess champion and often travelled to Delhi and Kolkata for competitions,” said Manimekalai, one of his teachers. Sundaram’s father Amuthan, a native of Karaikudi, runs a hotel in the MMDA colony
