Four people were killed on Wednesday morning when a mango-laden vehicle fell off a flyover on National Highway-9 in Agra, police said.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Hemant Kumar said the accident took place around 5 am in the Trans Yamuna police station area.
"The loader vehicle carrying mangoes from Firozabad lost control while ascending a flyover. The vehicle veered off the edge and fell from a height. Below the flyover, three men, Rajesh (65), Rameshwar (60), and Haribabu (63), were sitting after their morning walk when the vehicle fell on them, killing all three on the spot," the officer said.
The 22-year-old driver, Krishna, also died in the incident, he said.
"The preliminary investigation suggests the driver may have dozed off at the wheel, leading to the accident," ACP Kumar said.
The loader's helper was injured and has been admitted to the hospital, he added.
