A 25-year-old software engineer was critically injured after a roadside tree branch fell on him near K. R. Circle close to PWD Office on Nrupatunga Road on Monday. This is the second such case in the last 10 days in the city.
Mayur Kumar, a resident of Nagavara, was on his way to work on a scooter when the branch fell on him. He sustained head injuries and fell unconscious. A traffic policeman on duty rushed to his help and shifted him to St. Martha’s Hospital, where the doctors after a CT scan, advised surgery and the youth is presently being treated in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
