Three people including a child were killed and 11 others injured in three separate road accidents in Narsingdi on Thursday.
The accidents occurred in Raipura, Shibpur and Belabo upazilas. In Raipura, a head-on collision between two CNG-run auto-rickshaws left one person dead and 11 others injured.
In the afternoon, Ujjal Shil, 35, was killed when two CNG-run auto-rickshaws collided head-on in the Mahmudnagar area of the Narsingdi-Raipura regional road. He was the son of Narayan Chandra Shil of Methikanda village in Raipura upazila.
According to police and local sources, an auto-rickshaw carrying five passengers was travelling towards Raipura from the Arshinagar CNG stand in Narsingdi around 2:00 PM. When it reached near Bridge No. 10 in Mahmudnagar after passing through Hasnabad, it collided head-on with another auto-rickshaw coming from the opposite direction. One vehicle fell into a roadside ditch while the other overturned beside the road. Both vehicles were badly damaged.
Local residents rescued the injured and took them to Narsingdi Sadar Hospital, where the attending physician declared Ujjal Shil dead.
Dr Farida Gulshanara Kabir, resident medical officer (RMO) at Narsingdi Sadar Hospital said, ''12 people injured in the accident were brought to the hospital in the afternoon. One of them was found dead. One injured person was referred to Dhaka for advanced treatment, while the others were receiving treatment at the hospital.''
Meanwhile, Md Sabbir Mia, 19, a worker, was killed in the morning after falling from a moving brick-laden trolley and being crushed under its wheels in the Shibpur College Gate area of Shibpur upazila. He was the son of Md Masud Mia of Dhanuya village in the upazila's Mashimpur union.
In another accident on the same morning, three-year-old Alisha Akter Noha was killed after being run over by a brick-laden trolley in the Patuli riverside area of Belabo upazila. She died at the scene. Noha was the daughter of Kashem Mia of Patuli village.
