New Delhi: An Indian-origin man was involved in a fatal crash that killed a pregnant teenager and her unborn child. The accused, identified as Tarsem Singh, was allegedly driving a Range Rover Velar at a high speed during a police chase when the incident took place in February.
Authorities confirmed that the car was travelling at an extremely high speed, at around 100 miles per hour, before the collision. The accident began after police spotted a man driving a car rashly at a high speed. Police tried to stop the vehicle, but instead of stopping the car, Singh accelerated and tried to escape from the scene.
Police began the chase, and it ended when Singh’s car rammed into a Jeep Cherokee. The 17-year-old pregnant girl who was sitting inside Singh’s car was ejected from the SUV and died from her injuries.

Singh also sustained injuries in the crash and was airlifted to Miami Valley Hospital for treatment before being taken into custody, the Dayton Daily News reported.
“Indian criminal illegal alien Tarsem Singh’s crash injuries are slight compared to those of his 17-YEAR-OLD PREGNANT PASSENGER Ashlee Holmes and her UNBORN CHILD, who were allegedly thrown from his Range Rover and KILLED when he crashed after fleeing from Ohio police at 100 MPH,” the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement department wrote on social media after the incident.
According to the reports, Singh has pleaded not guilty to the charges, but he is still in police detention. The next court appearance is scheduled for April 3 for Singh.
However, officials have set a $1 million bond for Singh. Authorities also confirmed that an immigration detainer has been placed on him, meaning deportation proceedings could follow if he is convicted.
