In a horrifying incident, one person was killed after his car was crushed between two trucks near Palasuni bus stand in Bhubaneswar on Monday morning. The identity of the deceased is yet to be ascertained.

According to eyewitnesses, a truck stopped near the stand to allow a person to cross the road. Subsequently, two cars behind the truck, also came to a halt.

However, a Hyva truck which seemed to be out of control came speeding towards the halted vehicles before hitting a white car first narrowly and then ferociously crushing another blue car against the truck in the front. 

While the white car first hit by the Hyva swayed away from the route and avoided the mishap, the blue car got sandwiched between the two trucks resulting in the death of the occupant, eyewitness said. 

The footage of the entire accident has been captured in the CCTVs installed nearby. 

Meanwhile, vehicular movement on the national highway has disrupted following the mishap.
