Another woman who narrowly escaped death said she had to do a big dive in her bid to avoid being crushed by the truck.
“As
soon as I noticed the speed with which the driver was coming, I decided
to jump to the other side of my store; if not I would have been dead by
now.”
Report says that the skulls of the pupils were ripped open, while the body of the woman killed was torn into pieces.
