An Emirati youth died after his car crashed into a lamppost in Ras Al Khaimah on Saturday afternoon. Such was the impact of the accident that the car burst into flames.

The victim, identified as M.M., reportedly burned to death in the accident.

After being alerted of the accident, the central operations room of the RAK Police dispatched police patrols and paramedics to the site. "The victim, who was in his twenties, died on the spot, after the car he was driving at a high speed rammed into a lamppost," a police source said.

A video of the accident shows a burning white sedan wedged into the lamppost on a divider, and black smoke billowing from it.
