A three-year-old boy and 21-year-old twins died in a traffic accident in Fujairah on Wednesday night. Four other members of the same family sustained injuries in the crash and are currently receiving treatment at a local hospital.
The family, originally from the Indian state of Kerala, are long-time residents of Fujairah. According to a local social worker, the family was returning to Fujairah from Sharjah when the accident occurred. The 21-year-old man was reportedly driving the vehicle. The deceased child was the son of the twins’ older sister.
On Thursday, Fujairah Police reported a separate, serious multi-vehicle collision involving a truck on Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Road near the emirate’s entrance at midnight. The police confirmed the crash resulted in several fatalities and injuries, though it has not been officially confirmed if the Indian family was involved in this specific collision.
