As many as five people were injured after the driver of a Mercedes car allegedly lost control of the vehicle at Mumbai airport, the officials said on Sunday.


Five persons, including two foreigners, were injured at Mumbai international airport on Sunday morning after a Mercedes car hit them, a police official said.


The driver lost control of his car in the departure lane of Terminal 2 (T2), A Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport spokesperson said.


According to an official statement from the airport, the airport’s medical team quickly responded to the scene and provided first aid to the injured.

The injured people were then taken to the hospital for further treatment.

In an official statement, the CSMIA said, "This morning at CSMIA, a driver lost control of his car in T2's departure lane, injuring five people. The airport medical team immediately rushed to the spot to provide first aid. The injured have been admitted to hospital for treatment. CSMIA is working with the police and other teams to ensure the safety of passengers and continuation of operations."

The police which is investigating the matter said that the driver of the luxury car, which was at airport to drop off a passenger, lost control of the vehicle, resulting in the incident in the parking lot of Terminal 2, the Sahar police station official said, according to the PTI.

"The driver of the car, identified as Navi Mumbai resident Parshuram Chincholappa Dadanavre (34), was arrested for rash driving and negligence. The five injured comprise two foreign nationals, who are admitted to Nanavati Hospital, and three airport crew members, who are undergoing treatment in Cooper Hospital," he said.

"Prima facie, it seems Dadanavre pushed the accelerator instead of the brake, which led to the Mercedes car rushing ahead at a speed breaker at airport gate number one. The vehicle has been impounded as part of the probe," the official informed, as per the PTI.
