A moment of recklessness has shattered a family’s dreams after 18-year-old Kasarachi Oduoma was crushed to death by a motorist engaged in a struggle with police officers while driving. The horrifying incident occurred at Umuelemai Junction, Isiala Mbano LGA, Imo State, leaving witnesses in shock.
Kasarachi, an aspiring fashion designer and decorator, was standing by the roadside with two colleagues, waiting for the road to clear before crossing, when tragedy struck. A red Toyota Camry lost control and smashed into her at high speed, killing her on the spot. She was rushed to the hospital but was confirmed dead on arrival.
The driver, who abandoned his vehicle at the scene, reportedly fled immediately, leaving behind devastation and unanswered questions. Witnesses say he was wrestling for control of the steering wheel with police officers while in motion, an altercation that ultimately cost an innocent life.
Her grieving family, who had sent her to acquire vocational skills to uplift their household, is now left with pain and unanswered questions. The police have launched a manhunt for the fleeing driver while locals demand justice for Kasarachi.
