DEHRADUN: A 12-year-old boy, Kartik Kumar, passed away after getting mistakenly strangled by a dog leash while having fun with his 10-year-old sibling at their home in Dehradun’s Patel Nagar location on Friday night.
The kids were alone at home as their daddy, an auto-rickshaw driver, was out for work and their mom had actually gone to a neighboring market.
“The boy had actually put the collar end of the dog leash around his neck and tossed the other end over a door while having fun with his sibling. The leash got knotted with the lock. Struggling to totally free himself, Kartik wound up tightening up the collar more, which resulted in asphyxiation. His sibling attempted to rescue him however stopped working.”
“She later on called neighbours for help, who hurried the boy to a healthcare facility. However, it was far too late, as physicians pronounced him dead,” said sub-inspector Sanjeet Kumar, in-charge of ISBT authorities check post, who was amongst the very first to hurry to the area.
He included that the authorities attempted to talk to the boy’s sibling about the occurrences that resulted in the boy’s death, as she was the only one that had actually experienced the episode, however she was “too traumatised to talk”.
“On Saturday, we got the post-mortem assessment of the body performed in the healthcare facility where physicians said asphyxiation was the cause of death. A probe is on to understand more information about the occurrence,” Kumar said.
