New Delhi: In a freak accident, a 20-year-old woman bus passenger died after her head was crushed by a vehicle coming from the opposite side as she leaned out of the window while vomiting, a Delhi Police official said on Wednesday.
The incident occurred on Wednesday in Delhi’s Alipur area.
According to police, information was received from SRHC Hospital in Narela regarding admission of a patient after an accident.
“A police team was dispatched to the spot where Babli, a resident of Uttar Pradesh’s Pratapgarh district, was found dead,” said a senior police official.
On inquiry it was revealed that Babli was traveling from ISBT Delhi to Ludhiana in a Haryana roadways bus, with her in-laws.
As the bus was nearing Khanpur (Alipur), Babli experienced a sensation of nausea and leaned out of the bus window to vomit.
