It is said that the tricycle somersaulted and landed on the driver, killing him instantly.

However, another passenger was critically injured after the logs fell on his legs and he is being treated at the Salwa District Hospital..

Eyewitnesses told Adom News’ Rebecca Natomah that they believed the victims were trapped for minutes before being discovered.
