A 50-year-old scrap dealer died after being hit from behind by a dumper on Hill Road near Bandra police station. He fell allegedly due to loose gravel scattered on the road, left there from ongoing road work on one side.
 
According to the family, the dumper driver hit him from behind, causing him to get stuck under the front tire. The dumper then dragged him for a few metres, resulting in his death. The family has urged the police to investigate whether the fall was caused by the road condition and the gravel lying on the road. They have also demanded that the contractor responsible be held accountable.
