One person was killed and three others were injured when a truck carrying apples overturned on a car near Hassan Valley which comes under the jurisdiction of Dhalli police station here, a police official said today.
The accident was so severe that the car got crushed and the body had to be extricated after cutting the vehicle, he said.
The truck was also later removed from the road to ensure smooth flow of traffic.
