In a heartbreaking accident from Kerala’s Kasaragod district, a toddler was crushed under a car which was being parked by his grandfather. The unfortunate incident occurred when, during a turn, the grandfather accidentally ran over the toddler. The incident took place on November 10. The one-and-a-half-year-old was identified as Mastul Jishan.
CCTV footage from the family’s home captured the distressing moment, showing the toddler standing in front of the car. Another slightly older child, aware of the situation, cleared the way for the vehicle in the background.
Upon realizing the grave accident, the older child hurriedly went to rescue the toddler trapped beneath the car.
The grandfather promptly exited the vehicle and cradled the injured toddler in his arms, while another person rushed in to assist in to help. A case has been registered in the case.
