A group of people loot a milk tanker in Uttar Pradesh’s Ghaziabad after it met with an accident on the road. The incident occurred on the highway near ABES Engineering College when the tanker was hit from behind by a truck, causing a spill on the road. Notably, the driver of the truck, identified as Prem Singh, lost his life in the crash.
The collision between the truck and the milk tanker led to a leak in the milk tanker and soon several locals saw an opportunity in the misfortune. A viral video on social media captured the chaotic scene as people scrambled to collect the spilling milk in boxes and bottles. Others were seen attempting to salvage the milk flowing on the road.
It is not from #Bangladesh but from Vijaynagar in Ghaziabad, where a milk truck driver died in an accident, and then robbers looted the milk.😢#BangladeshViolence#SaveBangladeshiHindus#BangladeshViolence#भविष्यमालिकापुराण_कागूढ़रहस्य pic.twitter.com/fDmalxVpke

In a similar incident, a video of people looting chickens from a vehicle that met with an accident on the Agra-Firozabad National Highway months earlier went viral on social media. The vehicle, which was carrying chickens worth about Rs 1.5 lakh, was involved in a collision with 16 vehicles on the highway due to dense fog in the region.
Shocking incident on Agra Expressway - people looting helpless chickens. It's disheartening to witness such acts of cruelty. This reflects a loss in our humanity. Let's advocate for compassion and empathy towards all living beings. No one should suffer in silence. 💔… pic.twitter.com/HHruIyGgwh

As soon as the accident happened, villagers living nearby and some passers-by started taking out the chickens from the cage of the vehicle. They were joined by other people who were passing by the highway.
Some were seen running with chickens in their hands, while others filled them in sacks. The looting continued for about half an hour, until the police arrived at the spot and dispersed the crowd but by then, dozens of chickens had been taken away by the looters.
