Man killed in freak accident

A 26-year-old civil engineer was killed instantly when a four-wheeler ran him over in a freak accident on Ramanjaneya main road in Kumaraswamy Layout, south Bengaluru, on Monday. 

The deceased has been identified as Y Jagadish, a resident of Chikkalasandra near Banashankari 2nd Stage. Jagadish was on his way to the workplace when a mini goods vehicle plying ahead had its rear door open suddenly.

The engineer ended up brushing his motorcycle into the door, and fell off. Just then, another four-wheeler ran him over. Police said that they had detained the drivers of both the vehicles involved in the accident.
