Three people, including two labourers, were charred to death, and an equal number suffered burn injuries when an oil tanker rammed into a stationary tractor-trolley and burst into flames here, police said today.
The incident happened near Maupur village, some 30-km from here, on the Agra-Jaipur highway late last night, they said.
The labourers, sleeping on the pavement, were engulfed in flames when the oil tanker exploded, police said.
Two of them were burnt alive and three were injured and admitted to a hospital in Agra for treatment.
The body of the third person, killed in the accident, was charred beyond recognition, police said.
He was believed to be the driver or the cleaner of the oil tanker, they said.
