A 19-year-old Indian student, Komalpreet Kaur, died in Perth, Australia, after she was struck by a car and got trapped under the car. The accident took place last Saturday at about 11.30 pm at the Bentley Plaza car park on Albany Highway, near John Street. Komalpreet was alive with critical injuries when she was taken to Royal Perth Hospital. She later died in the hospital. The 19-year-old driver of the blue Hyundai i30 hatchback has not yet been charged and is part of the investigation. Witnesses told 9News that the driver knew the women and was begging people to call for an ambulance.
Nathan Burge who was present when Kaur was hit by the car said they heard a loud bang. “I just started to yell out, ‘Any man, any man’, I’m pointing at people, getting them over, ‘Any male, any male’, I wanted to flip that car over,” he said. “We ended up with a good 10 to 12 people on it … we got [the car] up and someone pulled her out.”
