The second accident occurred when an ambulance from Mastuana Sahib reached the spot to take the injured to the civil hospital in Sangrur. Again, due to poor visibility, a truck hit the ambulance, injuring two people. The deceased conductor has been identified as Ramandeep Singh (32), a resident of Malout in Muktsar district.
