A newly-wed couple was killed in a road accident on the Perumbakkam-Arakkonam Road near Mappedu on Sunday night. M. Manoj Kumar, 31, of Arakkonam, married Karthika, 30, of Perumbakkam, Chennai, a few days ago.
The couple was returning home from Chennai in a car when a concrete mixer truck overturned and crushed the car and the couple in it. The truck driver fled the spot.
Personnel from the Mappedu police station and the Fire and Rescue Services struggled for a few hours to retrieve the bodies.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
