Summary:
Thane, Aug 31 (PTI) Eight people have been arrested in Mira Road in Thane district for allegedly killing a 18-year-old boy in a road rage incident, with a probe revealing it was a case of mistaken identity, police said on Tuesday.
At around 9pm on Sunday, a motorcycle had come dangerously close to another two-wheeler, often called "cut" in street lingo, after which a group attacked and killed a motorcycle-borne teen identified as Shubham Bhuvad, an official said.
"The man whose motorcycle came close to this group, and who rode ahead and escaped, was wearing a red T-shirt, and, unfortunately, so was Shubham.
This made the eight men assault and kill him.
We have registered a murder case and are probing further," the Kashimira police station official said.
