A tragic and shocking incident occurred in Bengaluru, where a minor argument over the outcome of a cricket match and a cigarette lighter escalated into a fatal confrontation. Amidst intoxication, two friends became embroiled in a dispute that led to one young man, Prashant, being killed by the other, Roshan Hedge, who ran him over with his vehicle. According to police, the scene was so horrific that it resulted in instant death.
The victim, 33-year-old Prashant, was involved in a post-match celebration with 37-year-old Roshan Hedge, an IT professional. Following a cricket tournament at an electronic city ground, the two were sitting behind a mall, drinking beer. An argument started over the match, which intensified when they struggled to find a lighter for their cigarettes.
Witnesses report that initially, the dispute involved verbal exchanges, but it quickly escalated into a physical altercation. The situation heated up due to their inebriated state, with both men attempting to attack each other using beer bottles. During the chaos, Roshan suffered a severe injury to his tongue, prompting him to attempt to leave the scene in his Tata Safari.
However, the conflict had not yet subsided. Prashant tried to stop the moving vehicle and ended up on the hood when Roshan accelerated brutally. The car crashed violently into a tree and a wall, resulting in significant head and chest injuries to Prashant, causing his immediate death.
The entire incident was captured on the vehicle’s dash camera. Using this footage, police quickly identified Roshan Hedge as the suspect. Within an hour of the incident, police apprehended him and seized the vehicle used in the crime. Currently, he faces murder charges under Section 103(1) of the Indian Penal Code. This incident serves as a stark reminder of how quickly a trivial disagreement, exacerbated by alcohol, can take a tragic turn.
