A Mahindra Bolero was badly damaged after it got crushed between two trailers in Uttar Pradesh's Gorakhpur. The incident reportedly took place on Monday evening; however, the CCTV footage capturing the moments of the horrific accident recently surfaced on social media.
The footage shows a Mahindra Bolero car travelling behind a trailer. As the trailer applies its brakes and stops, the Bolero driver also slows down and stops. Within moments, another trailer crashes into the Bolero, crushing it between the two trailers.
Fortunately, the driver and the passengers in the vehicle narrowly escaped. Locals broke the Bolero's door and got both of them out of the vehicle.
Both trailer drivers managed to flee together in one of the trailers. Upon receiving information, Sarhari outpost police seized one trailer and are tracing the other trailer.
Ritesh Singh, a resident of Karmaura area, was travelling home from Gorakhpur on Monday evening in his Bolero with his driver Dinbandhu.
In a similar incident reported from Karnataka, an autorickshaw was sandwiched between two state-run buses in Chitradurga.
