The infamous black spot near Narangi Bypass lane in Virar claimed another life after a dumper toppled over while being approached by a mini truck from the wrong side on Friday morning. A passerby, Sujita Sudhir Shelar, 35, was crushed to death by the dumper while a scooter-borne couple in their 50s was critically injured. Shelar was walking to her residence in Virar East from the west via the lane at the time of the incident.

Assistant Commissioner of Police Chandrakant Jadhav told mid-day, “The injured couple, Ashok Shukla, 54, and Rama Shukla, 53, are residents of Global City in Virar West.” The couple’s son Siddhant Shukla said, “My parents have been admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). I can’t talk right now.” The dumper toppled on the right side, injuring its driver, too, said the police.
