The truck fell on its side. Meanwhile, the motorists ran away from the spot.

After waiting for a while, the truck driver went to look for a crane at Waluj. Seeing that there was nobody around the truck, the motorists and residents rushed to pick up the boxes of cold drinks. Many fled away with two to three boxes. Shop owner Mujahed Shaikh and others tried to stop the citizens. However, several boxes of cold drinks were stolen from the truck till then.
