Bengaluru: A three-year-old girl was killed after being run over by a container truck in Hanumanthegowdanapalya village of Madanayakanahalli on Saturday morning.

The deceased has been identified as Nishchitha L N Gowda (3 years and 6 months), daughter of Lakshminarayana, a resident of Hanumanthegowdanapalya.

According to police, the incident occurred between 11:15 am and 11:30 am when the child was walking towards a nearby Muneshwara temple with her mother Lavanya and her 11-month-old brother Diganth. The mother was carrying the infant while holding Nishchitha’s hand as they walked along the edge of the road.

Police said a container truck (registration number MH-04-HY-2203), allegedly driven rashly and negligently, struck the child from behind. The impact caused Nishchitha to fall, and the vehicle’s wheels ran over her head, resulting in instant death due to severe cranial injuries.

The driver reportedly did not notice the pedestrians walking on the side of the road.

Following the accident, Madanayakanahalli police have registered a case against the truck driver under Section 281 (rash driving) and Section 106(1) (causing death by negligence) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Further investigation is underway.
