Just days after a Pune minor behind the wheel of an unregistered Porsche killed two youngsters, a 15-year-old from Mazgaon, riding his father’s bike, hit and killed a 32-year-old garment businessman on Thursday. The JJ Marg police have taken the minor into custody and sent him to the Dongri Juvenile Justice Board. The cops have also arrested the minor boy’s father for giving the bike keys to the boy.

The father told police, “My son used to take my bike for a spin every day in the area. On Thursday morning, I was fast asleep and my son took the bike keys and left home. I didn’t know when he had left the house.” According to the father, the family told him that the boy had left at 7 am to buy bread from Mazgaon. However, the police believe that the minor boy’s father is making up a story as there are many shops in his area selling fresh bread.
