An auto-rickshaw transporting school children collided with a lorry near Sangam Sarath Theatre in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday morning, leaving eight students from Bethany School injured. The victims were promptly taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.

The collision, captured on camera, reportedly occurred due to the driver's negligence and reckless driving. The auto-rickshaw, en route to the school, collided with a lorry on its way to Bus Complex road from Railway Station Road, leading to the auto overturning. Five students rolled onto the road, and three others were trapped inside the mangled vehicle.
