Three people were killed and one more was injured today when their autorickshaw overturned after the driver lost control over the vehicle and collided with a divider at a high speed in New Friends Colony a police official said.
Ashok (18), Devraj (23) and Ram Singh (40) died while Amar Singh (25) was undergoing treatment. All victims were residents of Nehru Nagar. Amar Singh informed police that all four of them worked at a catering house and were returning home from Jaitpur, said DCP (southeast) Chinmoy Biswal.
