CCTV footage captured the incident, showing the tricycle moving along the road when it suddenly encountered a dog crossing its path. The vehicle appeared to lose its balance after hitting the animal before eventually overturning.

The impact caused several of the passengers to be thrown from the tricycle, according to the report.

Authorities from the Victoria Municipal Police Station said the passengers were senior high school students who were on their way home when the accident happened. The three students sustained injuries and were taken to a hospital, where they continued to receive medical treatment.

The tricycle driver also suffered minor injuries in the crash.

The incident reportedly happened without warning as the dog crossed the road, leaving the driver unable to maintain control of the vehicle. The CCTV recording is now part of the information being reviewed as authorities work to determine the circumstances surrounding the accident.

Police are also looking into the ownership of the dog involved in the incident. Authorities have yet to establish who owns the animal and whether further action will be taken once its owner is identified.

The crash highlights the potential danger posed by animals suddenly crossing busy roads, particularly for vehicles carrying multiple passengers.

The police investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue gathering information about the incident and determining the circumstances that led to the tricycle overturning.

The injured students remain under medical care, while the driver is recovering from his minor injuries. Further details may be released as the investigation progresses.
