The rising motocross star reportedly lost control of his motorcycle while navigating a corner, resulting in a horrific head injury.
According to the Indian Express, Hareesh, who turned 13 just last month, skidded out while navigating the race’s opening curve, sending his helmet flying off.
As soon as he fell off his bike, another rider who was following him closely crashed into him, causing a severe injury to his head that resulted in his death.
The Indian racer was rushed to a nearby hospital via an ambulance that was stood by at the event as a precaution. Hareesh was pronounced dead shortly after that.
