At least one person was killed, and three others were injured after a portion of an under-construction Metro pillar of the Line-4 viaduct collapsed and fell onto a moving autorickshaw and a car in the Mulund area of Mumbai, Maharashtra, on Saturday (February 14, 2026). The incident occurred on LBS Road near the Johnson & Johnson Company at around 12.20 pm.
The Mumbai Fire Brigade confirmed that a concrete piece measuring nearly 6 ft by 4 ft fell onto a moving autorickshaw and a Skoda car. Soon after the incident, the injured were admitted to Upasana Multispeciality Hospital, where Ramdhan Yadav was pronounced dead. Meanwhile, Rajkumar Indrajeet Yadav (45) is in critical condition, and he is in the ICU, while the conditions of Mahendra Pratap Yadav (52) and Deepa Ruhiya (40) are stable, according to a report in the TOI.
Emergency teams, including the fire brigade, police, metro personnel, civic ward officials, and 108 ambulance staff, rushed to the site and began rescue efforts. Authorities sealed off the area, causing a temporary disruption to traffic along the busy LBS Road.
Rescue operations were jointly carried out by fire services, police, metro staff, and civic authorities, while the affected stretch was cordoned off, briefly slowing movement on the arterial road.
