A 25-year-old Mumbai cop died in a bid to reach home a bit early after his bike crashed into a divider in the wee hours yesterday. The cop identified as Omkar Yerunkar had joined the police force in 2014 as a constable and was attached with the local arms (LA) unit number IV in Marol. Yerunkar who is survived by his parents and a sister was the only breadwinner, after his mother, who worked as a domestic help had quit her job. Yerunkar was in Dadar for a family get-together and planned to travel by the train while returning from the function. He went to the Matunga railway station, but decided to return to his relative’s house in Dadar, to collect his bike, which he generally parked there each day.
