A 10-year-old boy died after he was allegedly hit and subsequently run over by an overspeeding Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) garbage truck near Thanisandra on Saturday, police said.<\/p>\n
The BOY was identified as Iman, they added.<\/p>\n
According to the police, Iman and his father were riding a two-wheeler when their vehicle was hit from behind by the allegedly overspeeding BBMP garbage truck near Thanisandra at around 12.30 pm.<\/p>\n
As soon as the truck struck the two-wheeler, the boy fell from the vehicle and was allegedly run over by the BBMP truck, a senior police officer said.<\/p>\n
The boy was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was declared dead, she added.<\/p>\n
A medical examination of the driver revealed that he was not under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident, she further said.<\/p>\n
Following the accident, the driver of the vehicle lost consciousness, police said.<\/p>\n
Later, members of the public gathered at the accident spot and burned a tire of the offending vehicle to express their anger over the driver’s negligence, which led to the child’s death, they added.<\/p>\n
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic North) Gowri D R said, “A case under Section 106 (causing death by negligence) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita has been registered, and the accused driver has been arrested in connection with the incident.”<\/p>\n
