Thane: A tragic accident claimed the life of a 53-year-old woman on Monday night when a car collided with a parked motor vehicle, causing her to become trapped in between. The victim, identified as Pooja Krishnaji Sawant, a resident of Nilkanth Heights in Vartak Nagar, suffered serious injuries in the accident.

According to Sadashiv Nikam, the senior police inspector at Vartak Nagar police station, Pooja Sawant was returning home from Shastri Nagar after completing some personal errands.
