At least three persons, including two women, were killed in a freak accident on Bandra-Worli Sea Link on Thursday night.
The accident occurred around 10.45pm when the Innova first hit a Mercedes car about 100 metres before the toll booth, which is at the Bandra end of the sea link, on the north-bound lane.
The speeding car was coming from Worli towards Bandra. The officer said that the driver of the Innova tried to escape from the spot and sped away.
As the vehicle reached the toll booth, it rammed into many cars, leaving nine people injured. Later, three of them were declared dead.
Six injured persons, including the driver of the Innova, are being treated. Two of them are in serious condition.
A case is being registered against the driver of the Innova car on the basis of preliminary information and further investigations are under way.
