Melbournians of Indian descent, particularly Victorians of Punjabi origin from North India, are in a state of shock and disbelief. The entire community is in mourning today after one of its rising star, talented singer and actor Nirvair Singh tragically in a car crash, hit by an erratic driver at Diggers Rest in Melbourne’s northwest.
Nirvair died when a car driving erratically smashed into his vehicle, in a three-car collision on Bulla-Diggers Rest Rd in Diggers Rest about 3.30pm yesterday afternoon.
According to the Herald Sun, police had responded to reports of a vehicle driving erratically shortly before the crash occurred on Bulla-Diggers Rest Rd about 3.30pm.
A male and female from the vehicle accused of erratic driving are in police custody at The Alfred, where they are believed to be in a stable condition.
“Paramedics treated four people at the scene,” an Ambulance Victoria spokeswoman said.
