A cement truck crashed into many cars on the Karu Bridge in the Federal Capital Territory. The heavy truck lost control coming down Kugbo Hill when its brakes failed. It smashed into traffic heading the opposite way, crushing several vehicles with people inside. Bystanders said the truck driver ran away, fearing angry crowds might attack him because of how bad the crash was. Some motorcycle riders caught him near Karu Roundabout before he could escape completely.

Federal Road Safety Corps workers arrived quickly to help injured people and clear the road. The accident created huge traffic jams as crowds gathered to watch or help. Nobody knows exactly how many people died, but sources say there might be a lot of deaths based on how serious the crash looked. This terrible event happened on the same bridge where another recent accident occurred. That earlier crash involved a Dangote trailer running on compressed natural gas that also had brake problems and killed several people.
