A speeding Fortuner car hit a group of bikers in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, killing a 22-year-old student and leaving three others injured, police said on Thursday.

The incident occurred at 9 pm on Wednesday night at the Mohaddipur Overbridge in the Shahpur police station area of Gorakhpur.

The accident was so severe that Akash Pandey, a third-year MBBS student at Baba Radhav Das Medical College, died on the spot. Two others were seriously injured, while another suffered minor injuries, police said.
