A two-year-old boy was killed when he came under the wheels of a moving car while playing in front of his house. The incident occurred in the parking lot of an apartment in Marathahalli on Wednesday afternoon.

The deceased, Jissu Madak, was the son of Libaran Madak, a security guard at the apartment in Munnekolala. Madak’s wife worked as house keeping staff in the apartment. The couple have two children, Jissu being the younger one, the police said.

On Wednesday afternoon, while Madak’s wife was busy with her chores, Jissu was playing outside. One of the residents of the apartment began reversing his car, but failed to notice Jissu and ran over him. Jissu was rushed to a nearby hospital but was declared brought dead.

Based on the complaint filed by Libaran, the police have charged the car driver with death due to negligence and are investigating.
