Thrissur (Ker), Apr 15, 2015, (PTI): A spurned lover allegedly rammed his car into a young woman at Arimbur here and then went on to knock down five others who tried to help her, leaving them injured.

The incident occurred yesterday when the 22-year-old woman, a B.com student, came out of a temple after offering prayers and the 21-year-old youth Shebin allegedly rammed his car into her, leaving her with multiple injuries, police said today.

Five others, who tried to help the woman, were also knocked down by the youth after he reversed his vehicle and hit them causing serious injuries to at least two of them here, they said.

While one of the injured is on ventilator support, another is in ICU.

Shebin, against whom police has registered a case of murder, abandoned his car and is absconding along with his parents, police said.
