Betul (MP), Nov. 2 -- Twenty-six sheep died on the spot and about half a dozen were grievously injured when a speeding trailer truck plowed into a herd crossing a road near Kursana village in this district's Chicholi Police Station limits.
The incident occurred last evening on the Harda-Betul stretch of National Highway-47.
According to eye-witnesses, the truck bearing a Rajasthan number plate was heading towards Indore from here. The herd was returning to Rajasthan from the direction of Harda. The driver absconded, but the vehicle has been seized.
