Four members of a family, including two children, died after a speedy bus ran them over in Cumilla.
The deceased were identified as Shahinur Akhter, 25, her daughters Saima, 7, Raima, 2, and her mother-in-law Bilbunnesa, 55.
They were hit by a Dhaka-bound bus while crossing the road in Daudkandi upazila's Raypur area. They were on their way home from the doctor's chamber.
Locals rushed them to the Upazila Health Complex, where the duty doctor declared three of them dead. One of the children died on the way to Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH).
The bus fled the scene, said Cumilla Additional Superintendent of Police Shamsul Alam.
An operation is underway to nab the killer bus and its driver.
