Mangalore, June 19: A parked lorry moved on its own and plunged into a ravine near Kapitanio School in the city on Saturday evening.

There was no one onboard the lorry named 'Nishat' bearing registration number KA 20, 268.

The lorry was parked in neutral gear at the right side of the road leading to Kapitanio School from Pump-well when the incident took place.

The driver, who had a stop for refreshment blamed the slippery surface of the road and lack of barrier at the spot for the tragedy, which caused a huge loss to the owner of the lorry.
