NEW DELHI: A 55-year-old woman was crushed under the wheels of a truck in east Delhi’s Ghazipur area on Sunday morning. The woman was travelling on a two-wheeler with her husband, who also suffered injuries.
According to cops, the incident took place on Ghazipur Main Road near the dairy farm and the deceased was identified as Rajni Gupta. The errant truck driver has been arrested.
Gupta’s husband, Arun Kumar, told cops that he was taking his wife to a hospital in Noida’s Sector 27 when the accident occurred.
As they reached the main road, a truck bearing registration number UK 17CA 2391 came from behind at high speed and hit the scooter.
“My wife came under the rear wheels of the truck and died on the spot,” Kumar, who works as an electrician with the PWD, said. The driver of the vehicle tried to flee but was caught by passersby.
