Bike hits chief selector Sandeep Patil's car in Goa

A motorcyclist sustained injury when his vehicle crashed into the Mercedes sports car driven by chief national cricket selector Sandeep Patil at Betalbatim in South Goa, police said.

Patil, who had come on a private visit to Goa, was driving the car yesterday with his son also seated in, when the motorcyclist, identified as Lancy - a resident of Margao, came from the opposite direction and hit the car twice.

The biker first hit the mud-guard and then the rear side, as a result of which he was thrown to the other side of the road thus injuring his leg, police said. He was later shifted to a nearby hospital.
