LUCKNOW:A 25-year-old biker, allegedly speeding without helmet, died of head injuries after his two-wheeler ploughed into a herd of cows in Para, hit one of them, flipped and flung him onto the road early on Tuesday morning.
This is the fifth death in man-cattle conflict in the city in the past three months. The cow hit by the bike also succumbed to its injuries.
Police said Rahul Yadav was a resident of Hans Kheda and was returning home from Charbagh, where he and his brothers own a food stall, when he met with the accident around 4.30am. He was taken to Lok Bandhu Hospital in LDA Colony, but declared brought dead around 4.50am.
Eyewitnesses have told police that the youth was biking in top gear. When the stray cattle herd suddenly came in his way near a government school in Narpat Kheda, he applied the brake but lost control of the bike, which skidded and hit a cow before throwing him off the seat.
“On impact, the victim fell off his bike and on the road. He was not wearing a helmet and received head injuries. He did not make it to hospital alive. The cow suffered injuries on the neck and died on the spot too,” said SHO Tirloki Singh.
