In less than a distance of 3 kms, Rawat mowed down three people, all of them who were out for morning walk.

His first victim was 40-year-old Kameshwar Prasad, a government employee. Prasad was struck so hard that he was thrown against a tree and then hit a wall, killing him on the spot.

Instead of slowing down after his first accident, Rawat continued speeding at over 100 km/h. Even as crowds started gathering near Prasad's body his car hit the second victim Santosh, who was cleaning a car. Despite suffering injuries in his abdomen and legs Santhosh survived.

Rawat, who was speeding down the wrong side of the road now, hit Ashwini Anand, 67. Anand was thrown against a car parked by the road and landed about 20 metres behind it.

His mad rampage ended when a police constable intercepted him and forced him out of his car.

Still under the influence of alcohol, Rawat reportedly demanded a cigarette lighter from the police constable and asked the police to get compensation for the victims from his father.

The alcohol level in his body was found to be 159 mgcc, against the legal limit of 30 mgcc, almost five times higher than the permissible limits.

"As soon as he got out of the car, he fell on the ground. I called up the police station and requested for backup,¡± Parvesh Kumar, the constable who intercepted Rawat said.

Rawat, the son of a Delhi businessman was arrested under sections 304 (culpable homicide) and 308 (attempt to commit culpable homicide) of IPC and sent to Tihar Jail in judicial custody.
