In a heartbreaking accident on Wednesday in Tippunagar, Loretto Padavu, a three-year-old girl named Aashika lost her life after being trapped under the wheels of a parked goods tempo that unexpectedly reversed.
Aashika, the daughter of Unais from Pattanabailu near Farangipet, was playing outside her grandmother’s home when the tempo, owned by her uncle, moved backward without warning. The child was caught beneath the vehicle, sustaining critical injuries. Despite immediate efforts to save her, she was declared dead upon arrival at the hospital.
Bantwal traffic police have registered a case to investigate the incident.
