ABBOTTABAD: At least ten people were killed and eight others injured after a passenger van was crushed by a truck in Abbottabad on Thursday, said DPO Ashfaq Ahmed.
The van, en route to Islamabad from Mansehra, was crushed by a truck transporting wheat, as it tried to overtake the latter from the wrong side near Sabzi Mandi.
The injured passengers were shifted to Ayub Medical Complex.
Rescue services arrived at the site of the incident soon after the accident was reported.
Earlier this week on May 7, three persons, including a man and his wife, were killed when a car fell into a ravine near Ghea area on the Abbottabad-Nathiagali Road.
