He lay on the wayside for over eight hours
A man who sustained injuries in a road accident near Ettumanur bled to death after lying on the roadside for around eight hours.
The deceased, identified as Binu, 36, of Athirampuzha, sustained injuries when the autorickshaw he was riding lost control and overturned near Ettumanur Central Junction on Wednesday midnight. On witnessing the accident, a few locals rushed to the spot and tried to rescue Binu and his fellow traveller, identified as Rajesh.
“As the duo were in an inebriated state, none of the onlookers were willing to accompany them to hospital. Binu, who sustained head injuries, too refused to seek medical assistance or even board the autorickshaw again despite repeated requests from Rajesh. As the crowd dispersed, Rajesh too left the spot without taking the injured person along,” said an official with the Ettumanur police station.
