In another case today, at least four men lost their lives and two sustained injuries after a speeding truck rammed into a roadside eatery on the Etawah-Kanpur National Highway in Uttar Pradesh. District Magistrate Avnish Kumar, Senior Superintendent of Police Santosh Kumar and other senior officers visited the site of the incident in order to oversee relief and rescue operations, as reported by PTI.

The accident took place at around 10:30 pm on Saturday in the Ikdil area of Etawah district, said SSP Kumar. He said that a truck was coming from Kanpur and being driven at a high speed in the service lane. The driver lost control of the wheels and crashed into the eatery.

The deceased were identified as Suraj (32 years old) and Talib (30 years old), both residents of the Ikdil area, Sanjay Kumar (35 years old) of Agra and eatery owner Kuldeep Kumar (35 years old). All four were crushed under the wheels of the truck, reported PTI.
