Three persons, including a seven- year-old boy, were killed in two different road accidents here today, the police said.
According to Dadri police station in-charge Ramsen Singh, a class 2 student of a primary school, identified as Sachin, was crushed under the wheels of a tempo which supplied food for the mid-day meals.
The accident occurred near the school in the morning, Singh said, adding that the injured boy was rushed to the Yashoda Hospital at Ghaziabad, where he was declared "brought dead".
In another incident, an unidentified vehicle hit a two- wheeler near the DND Flyway at Noida last night, the police said.
The riders -- Vinay Kumar Prasad and his wife Anupama -- were returning from a Ganapati immersion when the accident occurred. Both of them were grievously injured in the incident.
They were rushed to the Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi but both died within hours, the police said.
