Yesterday, I saw a terrible accident.
Some children were playing cricket on the footpath.
Their ball rolled on to the road.
A child came to pick the ball up.
A speeding car and a bus were coming from the opposite directions. Both tried to save the child.
In the process, they rammed into each other.
All the three people inside the car died on the spot.
The driver of the bus ran away. A few passengers were injured. The police reached immediately.
The ambulance took away the dead.
Those with minor injuries were given first aid.
Those seriously injured were taken to the hospital.
The traffic came to a standstill for a while.
It took some time to get everything back to normal.
