    The victim, Shanmugam of Naduveerapattu near Tambaram, was a staff at a private hospital, police said. On Wednesday evening, while he was going towards Sriperumbudur via Kundrathur, a call taxi coming in the opposite direction brushed his two-wheeler at Periyar Nagar.

    It led to an argument between them. Locals tried to intervene, but it escalated into a physical fight. In the melee, somebody pushed Shanmugam on to the road and he was run over by a speeding lorry. 

    The Poonamallee traffic investigation police have registered a case and further inquiry is on.
