Kozhikode: In a tragic incident, a 20-year-old youth died while shooting a video of a luxury car at beach road here on Tuesday. The deceased is TK Alwin, a native of Vadakara. The accident took place around 7.30 am on Tuesday. He breathed his last while undergoing treatment at a private hospital here.

Alwin's friend claimed that he met with the accident while shooting the promotion video of a luxury car for a private car dealer. But the witnesses argued that the youth was engaged in shooting an Instagram reel with his friends. The new unregistered Defender car knocked down Alwin due to a brake failure, said witnesses. His friends who were following the Defender in another car rushed him to the hospital. 

Alwin who is employed in the UAE returned home last week. His body has been taken to Kozhikode Government Medical College Hospital for autopsy. Vellayil police have registered a case and seized both vehicles involved in the accident.
