Madhya Pradesh road accident: An 18-year-old woman was killed and six others were injured in a multi-vehicle collision in Madhya Pradesh's Khargone district today (August 15), police said. The brakes of a wheat-laden truck failed while negotiating a slope in Ganesh Ghat on the Agra-Mumbai national highway, said an official.

While the fire was put out, seven injured persons were rushed to a hospital in Indore. One of them, bus passenger Riya Jadhav (18), succumbed to her injuries. Jadhav had stuck her head out of a window to vomit when she sustained fatal injuries, the police official said.

The stretch of the highway where the pile-up took place is known to be accident-prone and called a "black spot," inspector Tiwari said.

More details are awaited in this regard.
