Sakleshpur: An LPG tanker overturned on Shiradi Ghat Road NH-75, resulting in a hazardous gas leak.
The mishap occurred near the double cross of Shiradighat road within the taluk, halting traffic and prompting a swift response from emergency services.
Reportedly, the driver lost control at a sharp turn, causing the tanker to overturn and leaking gas. As a safety measure, authorities stopped all traffic in the area. Emergency teams, including the fire brigade and police from Mangaluru, rushed to the scene to help.
