A tragic accident shattered the Sunday morning peace at Dadar Parsi Colony on Sunday after an eight-year-old girl died a few hours after being hit by a motorbike while running out of her building on Dr Ghanti Road in Dadar.

Both the girl, Afreen Rabadi, and the two people on the bike fell down. A security guard said the biker waited at the spot and the girl was given some water. Colony residents said she was taken to a doctor's clinic in the vicinity. However, after she was treated and went home, she threw up and was again taken to a hospital where she passed away. Police Inspector of Matunga Police Station P Chavan said, "We have taken a first information report (FIR) against unknown persons under Section 279 and 304 (A) of the Indian Penal Code and under relevant sections of the Motor Vehicles Act."
