Road accident snuffs out lives of six in Odisha
The poor visibility due to dense fog might be one of the causes of the road mishap. Besides, the driver of the van might have possibly dozed off leading to the mishap.
Seven people were killed after an autorickshaw they were travelling in was hit by a truck near Shemli village on the Malegaon-Satana Road in the district early Thursday morning, police said.
According to information received so far, the deceased were smalltime-vendors and were going to Satana, around 75 kms from here, to sell toys and other items at a fair there, they said.
The bodies are being taken to the Satana rural hospital, the police added.
