3 students from Telangana killed in Florida road accident

Three students from Telangana lost their lives in a tragic road accident in Florida on Tuesday, after their car collided with a tree on Interstate 95 in Brevard County, Florida. The victims included N Rahul, who hailed from Navipet in Nizamabad, and two others whose identities are yet to be disclosed. The accident occurred when the three were traveling to their part-time workplace.

Among the deceased, the driver and the passenger in the front seat succumbed to their injuries immediately at the scene. However, Rahul was rushed to the hospital, where he too met his untimely end the following night. Rahul's father, Haribabu, shared that his son had recently completed his Master's degree and was pursuing a PhD at the South Florida University. He was also actively seeking employment.

Haribabu expressed his anguish, stating that they only desire the repatriation of Rahul's body as swiftly as possible to conduct the final rites. He revealed that he received the devastating news at 3 am on Tuesday morning. The last communication he had with his son was a phone call just before he left for work, which Rahul made daily.

The Telugu Association of North America has been coordinating with Florida authorities to facilitate the necessary procedures for repatriating the bodies. Haribabu also noted that the identities of the other two students involved in the accident are still unknown. This is an ongoing and developing story, and further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
