A 55-year-old man was killed and five others were injured Saturday when they were hit by a low-floor city bus here, police said.
The accident took place at the Azadpur Market Chowk in north Delhi around 10.30 a.m. when the bus run by a private operator was going towards Old Delhi.
A witness told police that the bus first hit an auto-rickshaw, injuring two people travelling in it, and rammed a cycle-rickshaw. Three people riding the cycle-rickshaw were also injured.
A man walking down the street was killed in the accident.
The injured were admitted to a government hospital, while bus driver Sunil Kumar was arrested.
