According to an eye witness who spoke with our correspondent,
“God saved the school children because some of them were still standing at the school gate when the truck collided with high-tension wire then the man at the back got entangled with the wire which dragged him off the truck when he was almost flying on the air while the truck driver continued moving ignorant of what had happened until people started shouting on him to stop.”

The man at the back had already been dragged down to the ground by an old electric pool which also fell off as a result of the accident. And he was lying half dead on the ground with his legs seriously broken into pieces.

An Ambulance was called by sympathizers to rush the casualty to the hospital. Hopefully, he may survive it.
