අහංගම කතළුව පාලම අසලදී ටිපර් රථයක් සහ බස් රථයක් ගැටෙයි: පස්දෙනෙකු රෝහලට

This story is no longer in the live feed. First reported .

Newswire reports that a bus travelling from Galle towards Matara and a tipper truck travelling in the opposite direction collided near Kathaluwa Junction in Ahangama at about 7:30 a.m. on Oct. 26. Sri Lanka Mirror also reports a head-on collision near the junction, while Ada Derana reports that a bus and tipper truck collided in Ahangama.

Newswire and Sri Lanka Mirror report that five people were injured; Newsfirst reports six. Newsfirst says the drivers of both vehicles were among those hurt. Ada Derana’s English and Tamil reports, and Hiru News’s Sinhala and Tamil headlines, also report five injured.

The outlets differ on where the injured were taken: Newswire says they were transported by Suwa Seriya ambulances to Galle National Hospital, Sri Lanka Mirror names Karapitiya National Hospital, and Newsfirst says they were admitted to Gonagahena Hospital. Newswire reports police officers and local residents assisted with the transfer.

Newswire reports that the collision caused heavy traffic on the Galle–Matara main road and that Ahangama Police are conducting further investigations.
