Car crushed, newly weds die

Chennai:  02.11.2021

In a tragic turn of events, a newly wed couple died in a ghastly accident at Kadambathur in Tiruvallur district after a multi axle concrete mixer truck toppled over their car on Sunday night.

The deceased — Manoj Kumar, 31, of Arakkonam and Karthika, 30, of Perungalathur — had tied the knot on October 28.

On Sunday, the two were driving back from a gathering organised by Karthika’s relatives. On reaching Kadambathur at 9.45 pm, they were hit by a concrete mixer truck plying on the opposite side towards Chennai. The truck driver reportedly lost control while negotiating a curve. The high-impact collision caused the truck to topple and fall on the car crushing the couple to death. The truck driver fled the scene . A few passersby alerted police.

A crane was brought to remove the dead bodies from the mangled car. The Mappedu police registered a case and the bodies have been sent to Tiruvallur Government Hospital. Police are trying to trace the driver using the registration number of the truck. TNN
