Mangaluru, Jun 28: A speeding truck rammed into a bike and crashed into a shop at Valachil here on Sunday June 28.
It is learnt that the truck was transporting goods from Mangaluru to Bengaluru.
Sources said that the truck was moving at a high speed, and when it reached Valachil, a bike rider coming from Farangipete took a sudden right turn across the divider near the checkpost to move to a connecting road. The driver of the truck, in a bid to avoid hitting the bike, veered off to the side, hitting the bike as well as crashing into a nearby shop.
A woman pedestrian who was at the spot sustained injuries, and so also the bike rider.
The truck also rammed into two bikes that were near the shop.
Fortunately, no major injury or fatality was reported.
Kankanady traffic police arrived at the spot and registered a case.
