Both Revanth and Ramprasad died on the spot due to fatal injuries they received when the two speeding motorbikes rammed into each other on the bridge. Suman breathed his last while undergoing treatment at a hospital in Sironcha. Nithin was shifted to Mancherial, while Ravi was rushed to MGM Hospital in Warangal. Their condition is said to be out of danger.

At the time of the accident, Suman and Ravi were coming after visiting their relatives at Babbera Cheluka village in Kotapalli mandal, while Revanth and Ramprasad were returning to Ankisa village after watching a movie at Chennur. Over-speeding was the prima facie reason behind the mishap, said the police.
