Earlier, a road accident on the Armori-Gadchiroli highway in Maharashtra's Gadchiroli district claimed the lives of four young boys early Thursday morning.

The victims, aged between 14 and 16, were out for a morning walk near Katli village when a speeding unidentified truck ran them over, resulting in a horrifying tragedy that has left the entire region in mourning.

The deceased have been identified as Tinku Namdev Bhoyar (14), Tanmay Balaji Mankar (16), Dushan Duryodhan Meshram (14), and Tushar Rajendra Marbhate (14). Two others, Kshitij Meshram (16) and Aditya Kohpare (16), sustained critical injuries in the accident, reported ANI.

According to reports, the six boys were standing near a bridge on the highway when the unidentified truck, coming at high speed from Gadchiroli towards Armori, hit them with full force. Two of the boys died on the spot, while two others succumbed to injuries during treatment at the hospital. The injured were initially rushed to the Gadchiroli District General Hospital.
