Water tanker crushes teens to death

Two teenagers were crushed to death under a water tanker on Wednesday when they were on their way home on a two-wheeler in Vasai (East). The tanker driver fled the spot immediately even as a mob gathered.

The Manickpur police reached the spot and brought the mob under control. "We have taken the water tanker in custody and sent the bodies for post-mortem," said an officer.

We have registered a case against the driver and will arrest him soon, he added.
