Eight youths, including four B.Tech students, died on the spot in a horrifying accident on the Hyderabad Outer Ring Road late last night.

The accident occurred near the Suthariguda toll booth when the Chevrolet Tavera with eight students and a driver on board slowed down at the booth as there was a truck ahead.

However, another truck coming at full speed from the rear ploughed into the Tavera which got crushed between the two trucks, killing the eight students on the spot while the driver is battling for life at a private hospital.

The impact was such that the Tavera’s cabin totally disintegrated, Medchal Police Station Inspector S Rajasekhara Reddy said. The students were coming from Sadashivpet, 75 kms from Hyderabad in Medak district, to attend a marriage function at ANR Gardens at Kompally, 22 kms from Hyderabad.
