Tanker falls on car in Lagos, one killed

One person has been killed, following an accident in which a tanker fell on a car, rendering the vehicle totally useless.
Daily Post reports that Lagos State Emergency Agency (LASEMA), on Sunday, September 25, said it received a distress alert, early morning, through the toll free emergency number of Lagos State 767/112 regarding a fallen truck at Ikorodu.
LASEMA Emergency Response Team’s preliminary report revealed that a speeding Mack Truck with registration number AGL 664 XG laden with 33,000 litre PMS belonging to Forte Oil, while trying to turn at the roundabout, fell on a Hyundai Saloon Car with registration number KJA 421 AH.
The lone unidentified adult male in the car was killed.
Prompt arrival of security agencies including LASEMA ERT, Lagos State Fire Service, LASTMA, Civil Defense, FRSC and Nigeria Police, to the scene prevented the incident from escalting into a major disaster due to oil spillage and proximity to a filling station.
The truck was lifted upright, while the dead body was extricated by the LASEMA with the use of light duty equipments and subsequently taken to Ikorodu General Hospital Mortuary.
