An eight-year-old boy was killed after being hit by a speeding car here on Tuesday, police said.
Station House Officer Sube Singh said the victim, identified as Shaim, son of Sajid, was crossing the road when a fast-moving Santro car hit him in Asgarpur village in the Mirzapur area.
The impact flung the child to a distance, causing severe head injuries. He was rushed to a hospital for treatment, where doctors declared him dead, the officer said.
