Man Carrying Onion Bombs on Scooter Falls into Pothole, Dies in Explosion
The incident occurred near the Gauramma temple on East Street when the scooter hit a pothole, causing the firecrackers to shift and detonate.
A man tragically lost his life in Eluru when a sack of hand-made firecrackers, referred to as “onion bombs,” exploded while being transported on a Honda Activa scooter.
The incident occurred near the Gauramma temple on East Street when the scooter hit a pothole, causing the firecrackers to shift and detonate.
The victim, identified as Sudhakar, suffered severe burns and injuries from the blast and succumbed to his injuries shortly after. Five other individuals sustained injuries and were promptly transported to Eluru Government Hospital for treatment.
Police officials have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the explosion. Onion bombs, shaped like an onion, produce a powerful explosion and can cause significant harm when mishandled.
