Uttarakhand: Six dead in horrific car accident in Dehradun, one critical

Six people lost their lives in a horrific traffic accident in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, late last night. An Innova car was severely damaged when a cargo truck struck it at the ONGC crossing at around two in the morning. Tragically, the other passengers perished at the site, and one is in critical condition and receiving treatment at a local hospital.

According to Dehradun's SP City, Pramod Kumar, the Innova car was travelling from Ballupur towards the Cantt area when the accident took place.

Local authorities from the Cantt police station reached the site soon after the incident happened and the injured passenger was taken to the nearby hospital. The tragic loss of lives has sent shockwaves through the city, and investigations into the cause of the accident are underway.
