  "summary": "A car driven by a neurosurgeon, Dr K Jagadeesh Babu, hit a road divider and burst into flames on a highway in Suryapet district on Sunday morning. According to CCTV footage, the car veered from the fast lane, crossed all lanes, and slammed into the outer divider before erupting into flames.\n\nThe accident occurred around 7:15am as Dr Jagadeesh Babu was travelling from Khammam to Hyderabad. Police suspect that lack of sleep may have caused him to lose control of the car, according to the Times of India.\n\nThe fire engulfed the vehicle, trapping and charring Dr Jagadeesh Babu to death. His body was later identified and shifted to Suryapet Government General Hospital for postmortem. The police are investigating the circumstances that led to the accident.",
