The speeding car first rammed into three motorcycles parked along the roadside. It then crashed directly into a wall located near the salt factory. This area sits in front of Rainbow School, making the event particularly alarming for local residents.
Injuries and Damage
A young man riding one of the bikes sustained minor injuries during the collision. Fortunately, his injuries were not severe. However, the material damage was extensive. Three motorcycles and another car were badly damaged in the impact.
Eyewitnesses at the scene reported seeing the car moving at high speed just before the crash. The force of the collision left debris scattered across the road.
Accused Flee the Scene
Immediately after causing the accident, both teenage occupants of the car made a quick decision. They abandoned their damaged vehicle right there on the spot. Taking advantage of the darkness that enveloped the area late at night, they fled on foot. This left authorities with an empty car and many questions.

Law enforcement has now launched a full investigation. Officers are working to identify the teenagers involved in this hit-and-run case. They are using the car's registration number as a primary clue in their search.
