Six people were burnt to death and two policemen sustained injuries in a collision between a petrol-laden wagon and a truck in Machh town of Bolan District.
The wagon was loaded with petrol in Quetta and was heading towards Sibbi when it collided with the truck. The ensuing flames also engulfed a picket set up by Machh police and burned it down.
A large number of Frontier Corps and Levies personnel reached the site soon after the accident, and helped bring the fire under control.
The bodies were shifted to Machh Hospital.
