How did BMW crash on Mumbai Coastal Road? What we know so far

Early Sunday morning, a high-speed BMW crashed on Mumbai’s Coastal Road, resulting in the tragic deaths of three young men and leaving a fourth critically injured. The accident occurred near Lotus Jetty, opposite Lala Lajpatrai College, around 5:20 am. The BMW was traveling from Marine Drive towards Haji Ali when the driver lost control, causing the car to veer off its path and crash through a roadside barrier before falling from the bridge.

All four occupants of the vehicle were seriously injured, with three succumbing to their injuries at Nair Hospital, while one remains in critical condition. The identity of the deceased has been confirmed as 21-year-old Sanay Gujar, 19-year-old Aditya Jakasniya, and a 17-year-old minor, with Gujar being the driver. The other occupants, 20-year-old Onmy Aditya Oswal and a 17-year-old minor, survived the crash.

The group consisted of four students from NMIMS College in Juhu, who were returning from Marine Drive and staying in a PG accommodation in the city. Relatives of the deceased have reached the hospital, with the parents of the dead boys traveling from Ahmedabad and expected to arrive in Mumbai soon. The police are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash, including the vehicle's speed and the cause of the driver's loss of control.
