Early on Friday, four people were killed in a fatal road accident in Bengaluru Rural district, including two children, after a collision between an Andhra Pradesh RTC bus and a truck. Sixteen individuals were injured in the accident, with two of them currently in a critical condition.
The police stated that all the deceased hailed from the Chittoor district in Andhra Pradesh and have been identified as Keshava Reddy (44), Tulasi (21), Pranathi (04), and Maria (01)&nbsp;
The event took place at Gottipura Gate in Hoskote taluka, situated along the National Highway between Kolar and Hoskote, on the outskirts of Bengaluru city.&nbsp;
Police claim that the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation bus was en route from Tirupati to Bengaluru.
While passing, the bus driver apparently lost control and collided with the rear of the truck, which was also travelling to Bengaluru.
After a preliminary investigation, authorities believe the driver may have fallen asleep, which is why the accident happened.
The bus was reduced to a mangled state as a result of the accident. The Hoskote traffic police are looking into the incident, and the injured are receiving treatment at a private hospital in Hoskote.
