Bengaluru, September 7 (Daily Kiran) : A tragic accident occurred in Bengaluru’s Uttarahalli area on Monday, resulting in the death of a five-year-old boy named Bhavin. He was riding a scooter with his mother, Shubhalata, on their way to school when a tipper truck collided with them near the Savanadarbar Ashram.
According to police reports, the mother and son had just dropped off another child at school and were en route to Bhavin’s school when the incident took place. Witnesses claim that the tipper truck struck their scooter, causing Bhavin to fall onto the road. Unfortunately, the truck then ran over him, leading to his immediate death.
After the accident, the driver of the tipper fled the scene. The Kengeri traffic police have registered a case and seized the vehicle. Efforts are underway to locate and apprehend the driver. Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident, including the truck’s movements and activities prior to the collision.
In a separate incident earlier, seven people lost their lives in road accidents in Karnataka’s Kolar and Chikkaballapur districts. Among the deceased were four family members returning to Bengaluru after visiting the Tirupati temple. Their car overturned on the Chennai-Bengaluru Expressway near KGF taluk, leading to their deaths.
The victims included 70-year-old Sharadamma, 25-year-old Dikshita, 41-year-old Devendra Kumar, and 13-year-old Jishnu, all residents of Vidyaranyapura in Bengaluru. The car reportedly lost control and crashed into a divider, resulting in the fatalities.
In another unrelated accident in Chikkaballapur district, three women died when an Omni van carrying laborers collided with a mini goods vehicle. The accident occurred while Ramachandappa was transporting ten workers from Mallikarjunapura village to Huzuguru village for flower-picking.
The police have registered cases in both incidents and are conducting further investigations.
