Nashik: In a heartbreaking incident near Shivajinagar on Friday night, nine people lost their lives after an Ertiga car plunged into a well. The victims included six students. Among the deceased were five members of the same family along with four other relatives. The tragedy occurred while they were returning home after attending a reunion function of a private coaching class, leaving the entire area in deep mourning. According to the information received, the accident took place around 10 pm when the Ertiga car fell into a well belonging to Raju Raje in the Shivajinagar area.
