No fewer than four people, including three National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members, were feared dead as a Nissan Primera travelling along the Kwale road in Delta State rammed into a stationary truck after its back tyre pulled off at the weekend.
The incident happened after Ishelegu junction as the driver was heading to Kwale.
It was gathered that the car driver, whose name could not be ascertained as at the time of filing this report, was said to have rushed his ill relative to an undisclosed hospital but, before they got to the Hospital, the (sick relative) gave up the ghost and his corpse was deposited in a morgue.
