Five Students Injured in Parapet Wall Collapse at Mangaluru College Event
Five students were injured, including one critically, after a parapet wall collapsed during a student association event at a community hall in Yemmekere, Mangaluru. The incident occurred as students gathered to celebrate the installation of office-bearers, with some leaning against the reportedly weak wall. The critically injured 16-year-old, Mohammed Shamaz, is in ICU and suspected to be brain dead. The other injured students are receiving hospital treatment, and police have attributed the collapse to overcrowding and the wall's poor condition.
