The accident took place on Saturday night when the car which was on its way to Vaishali hit a scooter coming from the opposite direction, injuring two people -- Sonu and Ashok, Deputy Superintendent of Police Anshu Jain said.

As the driver lost control over the vehicle, the car also hit a passerby, killing him on the spot, he said. The passerby's body was found lying in a pool of blood near the road divider, the DSP said, adding that the man was identified as Rohit.
