Bengaluru: 

An Audi car with a VIP number plate drove around Bengaluru late last night with seven young people inside, none wearing seatbelts.

Around 2.30 am, the Audi Q3 went over a footpath and crashed into a pole, killing all seven, including the son of a Tamil Nadu MLA. The driver lost control of the speeding car, according to the police.

A CCTV clip shows the moment the car smashed into the pole at a great speed, a wheel flying off instantly.

Six people, including three women, died on the spot, the seventh died in the hospital.

The son of DMK MLA Y Prakash and his wife were in the group. All were in their twenties, enjoying a late night joyride.

The car was completely wrecked, its front part reduced to mangled steel.
