Tumkur, Sep 23: : Five members of a family, including two children, were killed on Sunday when their car careened off National Highway 48, near Gavimatha, Kunigal in Tumkur district, and fell off a bridge.

The dead are Manjunath, 36, his wife Anitha, 28, Pushpalatha, 24, Preetham, 4, and an eight-month-old infant. All are from Bagalagunte in Bangalore.

The family, travelling in a Maruti Swift car, were returning after attending a relative's marriage in Chennarayapatna on Saturday. The car was speeding when its tyre burst and the driver lost control over the vehicle when it was moving on the bridge. The car hit the parapet wall of the bridge and fell into the 12-foot-deep ditch.

Pushpalatha, Preetham and the infant died on the spot. Manjunath and Anitha succumbed to injuries later in a nearby hospital.
