Victim identified as local journalist
The deceased rider has been identified as Anil Kumar Naik, 44, who worked with a couple of news channels and a newspaper in Shivamogga, according to The Hindu. After the accident, he was immediately rushed to a private hospital for treatment. However, doctors could not save him and he later succumbed to his injuries.
