A fatal accident between a motorbike and a trontoon truck occurred on Jalan Colonel Sugiono, Malang City on Saturday (27/4/2024) morning. The accident resulted in the motorbike rider, a resident of Mergosono, dying at the scene.

Initially, the victim was riding a motorbike walking from east to west at around 06.00 WIB. At that time, the victim was about to turn right or north on the road. However, unfortunately the victim was hit by a trontoon truck which was traveling from south to north.
It is known that the victim's body was dragged by the rear wheel of the tronton truck for several meters. This resulted in serious injuries to the victim's chest.

"As a result of the accident, the victim riding the motorbike suffered serious chest injuries and died at the scene," said Isrofi.
