New Delhi, March 6 (IANS) A 17-year-old Class 12 student was killed here when a speeding Mercedes Benz ran over him after hitting his Scooty, police said on Monday.

Atul Arora died in the accident at Paschim Vihar in west Delhi on Sunday night. He was dragged about 100 metres by the car before it ran over him, police said.

The car driver fled the spot. The incident was captured in CCTV cameras of nearby shops.

"We have identified the driver and will soon nab him," a police officer said.

Atul was a student of Bal Bharti School at Pitampura and had just passed Class 11.
