Mathura: A car carrying 9 people met with an accident on Saturday morning at the Yamuna Expressway, killing 7 and grievously injuring 2.

The incident took place near Mathura. The car has a Noida registration and was apparently coming from Agra.

The accident took place near the Naujheel area. The car was badly damaged. What caused the accident is unclear. The police said the car might have collided with another vehicle.

According to the police, a passerby gave information about the accident. Since the front of the car had caved in, the police had to cut open the vehicle to extricate the injured. 7 people, including 3 men, 3 women and a child, were declared dead at a nearby hospital, where two people have been referred to a higher health centre.

The authorities are trying to contact the families of the victims. They are also trying to ascertain the circumstances leading to the accident.
