Four Indians killed in multi-vehicle crash in US; they had connected through carpooling app
Texas: Four Indians, who were carpooling and heading to Bentonville, tragically lost their lives when their SUV burst into flames after a multi-vehicle collision in United States’ Texas. The accident occurred on August 30, 2024, when a speeding truck rammed into their SUV. The bodies of the victims were charred.
The victims have been identified as Aryan Raghunath Orampati and Farooq Shaik from Hyderabad, Lokesh Palacharla of East Godavari in Andhra Pradesh, and Darshini Vasudevan from Tamil Nadu.
Mastan Vali, Farooq Shaik’s father, said that his son had been living in the US for three years and had recently completed his M.S. course, as reported by NDTV. He added that his daughter lives there and is handling the situation.
Aryan’s family had recently attended his convocation at the University of Texas in Dallas. Despite their wishes for him to return home soon, Aryan intended to work in the US for a while longer. He and Farooq were on their way to Bentonville after visiting a cousin in Dallas. Lokesh was heading to Bentonville to see his wife, and Darshini was travelling to visit her uncle while pursuing her master’s degree at the University of Texas.
The families are awaiting confirmation from US authorities, who are conducting DNA fingerprinting and examining dental and bone remains to identify the victims. “DNA fingerprinting will be done to identify the bodies, and the samples will be matched with the parents,” a local authority stated.
