Five killed in Udaipur after car collides with truck: Police

Five people, including son of a police head constable, were killed after their car collided with a truck in Udaipur’s Ambari area, officials said.

The incident took place around midnight on Thursday in the Ambari area.

Station house officer (SHO) of Sukher police station Himanshu Singh Rajawat said, “The victims were traveling in a car when the crash occurred. All the deceased were identified. The group was heading towards Debari on the wrong side of the road from Ambari when they suddenly saw the oncoming truck- trailer. The downhill slope caused the truck to speed, and despite the driver’s efforts to avoid the collision, there was no space to maneuver. As a result, the truck and car collided head-on, severely crushing the car”.
