Eyewitnesses reported chaos as the lorry ploughed through pedestrians engaged in small businesses along the roadside. Panic ensued in the busy area, which is usually bustling with activity.

The police arrived to the scene, where they transported the injured to a nearby hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, the condition of some victims remains critical.
