Earlier this week, a shocking incident from Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, came to light after a video went viral, showing a woman driver running over a child and fleeing the scene. The incident occurred on February 24 at around 4:30 pm inside the SG Grand Society of Raj Nagar Extension, where a five-and-a-half-year-old child was struck by a car.

The entire episode was captured on the society's CCTV cameras, and the footage quickly spread across social media. The video showed a Honda City entering the society premises and hitting the child, who was playing inside the campus. The front wheel of the vehicle rolled over the child’s body before the driver momentarily stopped to check but then fled.

The woman behind the wheel was identified as Sandhya, who was reportedly driving her husband Amit’s car at the time. Despite suffering serious injuries, the child survived the accident. According to reports, he sustained a fractured right thigh bone and multiple wounds on his right hand, left leg, and back.

Following the incident, the child’s father lodged a complaint at the Nandgram police station, urging action against the driver.
