At least 5 persons were killed and 10 others injured after a speeding truck rammed into a roadside eatery in Bihar's Nalanda district on Sunday, police said.

"The incident took place at around 3 pm when a truck going towards Nalanda from Jahanabad district, rammed into a eatery, leaving 5 persons, including the owner of the shop, dead on the spot. Prime facie it appears that the driver might have lost his control over the wheels," said Shri Krishna Murari Prasad, SDPO Hilsa Nalanda.
