Three killed in Odisha hit-and-run accident
Three young people were sadly killed in a car accident in Odisha, India.
A fast-moving car hit their scooter from behind on a busy road.
The car drove away, and no one knows who was driving it yet.
The accident happened early in the morning when it was very foggy, which might have made it hard to see.
The people who live nearby were very upset and blocked the road to ask the government to make the roads safer.
The government promised to do something about it, so the people unblocked the road.
The police are investigating the accident.
Three people in their 20s died in a hit-and-run accident on National Highway 55 in Odisha's Dhenkanal district.
An unidentified speeding vehicle crashed into their scooter from the rear during the early hours of Friday.
The identities of the deceased and the vehicle involved have not been determined.
Local residents blocked the highway in protest, demanding government action to prevent road accidents.
The road blockade was withdrawn after administrative officials assured proactive measures to reduce accidents.
