Road accident:  At least four people were killed on the spot after the car they were travelling in rammed into a stationary truck on Wednesday on the busy Chennai  East Coast Road, police said. The incident took place near the Semmancheri Kuppam bus stand.

 The vehicle, which was allegedly driven at high speed, initially crashed into a barricade, lost control, and then collided with the rear of a lorry, resulting in the deaths of all four occupants. The incident occurred in the small hours on Wednesday at Semmancherry Kuppam on the ECR.
