In a road mishap involving a minivan and a pickup truck, Telugu students have succumbed. According to the latest media reports, this accident was reported on Route 7 near the Pike Road intersection. The accident took place between 5:15 AM and 5:30 AM while eight people were in the minivan. The drivers of both the vehicles survived in this mishap and they were rushed to Berkshire Medical Center for treatment.
While three persons died on the spot, four others sustained critical injuries while another person received a minor injury. Two of the deceased, including a woman, hail from Telangana while the third victim was from neighbouring Andhra Pradesh. The deceased were identified as Prem Kumar Reddy (Hyderabad), Pavani (Warangal) and V. Sai Narasimha (East Godavari).
Sai Narasimha, who had gone to the US in August of this year, was doing MS. The engineering graduate from Hindustan Engineering College in Chennai was recruited by a company. The 23-year-old later quit the job and enrolled himself for MS at a university in Connecticut.
The police are yet to find the reason behind this mishap and they suspect that it might be the weather. “It was raining heavily when the accident happened and there was fog too,” confirmed an official.
