About five persons have lost their lives in another terrible accident that occurred on Karu Bridge, inward Karu Site, in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), on Friday.
According to eyewitnesses, the accident was caused by a truck laden with cement which suffered a failed brake while descending the Kugbo hill.
The Nation gathered that the truck, after crushing about several vehicles and their occupants, attempted to escape but was intercepted around Karu Roundabout by commercial motorcyclists.
