Hundeyin said the owner of the Lexus car, now late, came out from his car and insisted that the Honda Accord car driver must come down and see the damage his car had done on his.

Hundeyin further said that the corpse was deposited at the mortuary for autopsy, while the abandoned car has been taken to the police station for custody.
He said that investigation was in progress as the police were on the trail of the fleeing driver.
