MYMENSINGH — A 5-and-a-half-year-old child, Farhan Ahmed, who was injured in a road accident on his way to school in Bhaluka, Mymensingh, died Friday morning while undergoing treatment at Mymensingh Medical College Hospital.
He was seriously injured Thursday morning when a battery-powered auto-rickshaw hit him on the Dhamshur-Mamarishpur road near Halimunnesa Chowdhurani Girls’ School.
According to family and local sources, Farhan Ahmed, son of Liton Ahmed of Dhamshur (North Para) village in the upazila and a play group student at the local Holy Bride Kindergarten, was walking to school with his mother Thursday morning. As they approached the school, the child let go of his mother’s hand and tried to run inside. A battery-powered auto-rickshaw struck him at that moment, leaving him seriously injured. He was first taken to the 50-bed Bhaluka Government Hospital and then, in critical condition, admitted to Mymensingh Medical College Hospital. He died Friday morning while undergoing treatment, said Nahid, a friend of the child’s father Liton Ahmed, who confirmed the incident.
