[Videos/Photos] Truck crushes pregnant woman, 3 others to death in Onitsha

Tragedy struck today in Onitsha, the commercial city of Anambra state when a pregnant woman, two children and a lady were sent to their early grave. The unfortunate incident occurred along Onitsha-Owerri road, by AP filling station, near Dangote Cement Depot.

According to an eye witness who recorded the video, some policemen attached to Dangote cement depot left their place of duty, came to the express way and started extorting money from motorists.

They eventually stopped a tricycle driver who suddenly applied brake that led to the oncoming truck smashing the 'Keke' and killing four people that were about crossing to the other lane of the road.

The policemen immediately ran away from the scene but angry mob took laws into their hands and burnt some part of the depot where they ran into.
