An 18-wheel trailer truck allegedly ran over three people, killing them instantly, on the outskirts of Amritsar Saturday. The dead include a woman and her son.
Police said the trailer truck carrying iron girders was headed from Mahla toward Ajnala. The victims, who were on a motorcycle, were riding behind the trailer and were caught by surprise when it suddenly reversed. All three were crushed to death.
The victims were identified as Raman, 23, his mother, Geeta, and a friend, Sunny, 27. Police sent the bodies for postmortem and detained the driver.
Amritsar mayor Moti Bhatia, who was passing by, tried to help the victims but they had died on impact.
