An 18-year-old boy died in a road accident in Gujarat's Surat while riding his KTM Duke motorcycle allegedly at a high speed.

The teen, identified as Prince Patel, was a social media influencer. He was riding a KTM sports bike when he lost control of the vehicle.

Patel, who was coming from the VNSGU side and descending the flyover towards Breadliner Circle, hit the road divider after losing control, resulting in his death on the spot. He was reportedly not wearing a helmet at the time of the crash, according to a report by The Times of India.

CCTV footage of the accident shows Prince riding allegedly at a speed of 140 kilometers per hour. The biker reportedly lost control and fell on the road, while the bike dragged along the divider before stopping a few hundred meters away from Prince.

Prince is seen rolling on the ground multiple times after falling off the bike before coming to a stop. The impact was so severe that his head was severed from his body, according to NDTV.

Prince's mother reportedly lives in a shelter and makes a living by selling milk.

A case has been registered and the police are investigating.

Prince Patel, a vlogger, was popular among teenagers for his biking reels and fast-riding content on social media. His Instagram account reflects his love for the KTM Duke 390, a bike which, according to his social media activity, he purchased in September.
