Panaji: One person lost his life after a mango tree collapsed on his two-wheeler at Mandrem as he was proceeding towards Mapusa from Arambol. The incident took place on May 12. Mandrem police registered an FIR in the matter.
Police said that Vedika, wife of Vishal Salkar, 34, residing at Mapusa, lodged a complaint on May 12 that the owners of the property bearing survey number 305/2 at Mandrem Pernem, Goa, failed to take necessary precautions concerning the mango tree that existed on their property.
