An Emirati man was killed when his car swerved off the road and overturned before hitting a steel barrier separating the street lanes in Ras Al Khaimah because of speed, a newspaper said on Wednesday.

Marwan Saeed Al Hamboosi lost control of the vehicle as he drove into the RAK airport roundabout at high speed, causing the car to veer off and overturn.

The man died on the spot after suffering from fractured skill and hands, Emirat Alyoum said, citing police sources.
