Mumbai: Amid heavy rainfall in parts of Mumbai and other districts, a large tree collapsed in Sector 10 of Nerul on Sunday, crashing onto a parked autorickshaw and a two-wheeler.
Two persons who were inside the autorickshaw were briefly trapped after the tree fell. However, they were later rescued safely, and no serious injuries were reported. The incident narrowly averted a major tragedy.
