Father and Son Killed in Kanpur Road‑Rage Stabbing After Minor Bike Collision

Police have identified the attackers, with raids under way to arrest two suspects who fled after the knife attack.

Overview

  • A minor collision near Vrindavan Guest House on the Yashoda Nagar bypass escalated into a violent road‑rage attack that left a 60‑year‑old father and one son dead and a second son critically injured after being beaten and stabbed.
  • The attack, which occurred Sunday night, began with helmets, kicks and punches before the assailants drew knives and stabbed the victims multiple times, according to doctors and eyewitnesses.
  • Locals overpowered and handed one accused to police at the scene while two suspects fled; investigators say they have identified the attackers and recovered three motorcycles from the spot.
  • Police commissioner Raghubir Lal and DCP (South) Deependra Nath Chaudhary deployed multiple teams to the area, seized the bikes and are examining CCTV as they conduct raids to locate the remaining suspects.
  • The victims worked at Kanak Marble and were returning from a shift, and the case is likely to heighten local concern about street violence as authorities pursue arrests and build a criminal case.
