“Taking prompt cognizance of the said incident, immediately an FIR has been registered against unknown person under the section of 281 (rash driving) of BNS at Police Station Sector 20 Noida, and the car used in the incident has been taken into police custody, while the teams have been formed to nab the accused and currently he is absconding,” he said.

Police have identified the vehicle's owner as Sawan Kumar, a resident of Shalimar Garden in Sahibabad, Ghaziabad. However, investigators are yet to establish whether Kumar was behind the wheel during the incident or whether someone else was driving the cab.

An initial probe also revealed that the car had previously received a Rs 500 traffic challan for violating road markings in Gurugram. The challan was issued on July 27 this year.

The police have seized the vehicle and formed teams to trace and arrest the suspected driver, who remains absconding.
