An 18-year-old man died in a freak accident after an air conditioner fell right on his head in Delhi yesterday. The incident happened last evening in the Doriwala area on Delhi’s Desh Bandhu Gupta road at around 6:40 pm.

In a CCTV footage, 18-year-old Jitesh can be seen sitting on his scooter ready to go off as he is chatting with another boy, Pranshu, 17. As both of them exchange a hug, a window AC falls right on Jitesh’s head from the second floor, killing him instantly. Pranshu was also injured in the accident.

Jitesh lived in Delhi’s Doriwala area while Pranshu is a resident of Patel Nagar.

The police have registered a case and started an investigation.

The DMRC said additional ticket counters will be set up to cater to the rush on the day of Raksha Bandhan.

A chilling incident in Central Delhi saw an AC unit plummet from above, killing a teen and injuring another.
