"A CT scan was done on all three and the reports are out. They are all out of danger," said P.P.S. Mathur, medical superintendent of the Sawai Man Singh hospital here.

The car they were travelling in swerved to avoid some children on the road, hit a truck in the other lane, said Jagmohan Sharma, the police officer in charge of the station at Bagru.
