Middle school girl run over by heavy truck after motorcycle crash in Rumpin, Indonesia.

NEWS:

A 15-year-old middle school girl died after falling from a motorcycle and being run over by a heavy truck in Rumpin, Bogor Regency, Indonesia. The fatal crash happened on Thursday, April 23, 2026, at about 00:1:30 p.m. on Prada Samlawi Road in Kampung Liwu, Rumpin village.

The victim was identified by the initials EAP. She was an eighth-grade student and a resident of Rumpin. Police statements published locally said she was riding on a motorcycle with two other people when the crash occurred.

Video from the scene records the fatal sequence involving the motorcycle and the truck. The footage shows the girl falling from the motorcycle and ending up in the path of the heavy vehicle. The truck runs over her, causing fatal head injuries. The video establishes the impact itself, but it does not establish the full cause of the crash, the speed of the truck or whether any driver violated a specific traffic rule.

Police said the truck was a green Hino heavy truck with license plate BE 8369 UC. It was reported to be empty at the time. The driver was identified by initials AK and described as a resident of Sukasari village. Police said the truck and driver were secured after the crash for further investigation.

The main account attributed to Rumpin police chief Kompol Suyoko said the truck was traveling from the Gunung Nyuncung Market area toward Rumpin. According to that account, the driver saw through the side mirror that the motorcycle carrying the victim and two other people had brushed against another vehicle or lost balance and fallen. The girl was thrown to the right, into the path of the truck's rear wheels.

Suyoko was quoted as saying that the victim fell on the right side and that her head came under the truck's rear tire. She died at the scene.

The two other people on the motorcycle were identified as Mulyani, 48, and Zubaidah, 50, residents of Pamagar Sari village in Parung district. Police said they fell to the left side of the road and suffered minor injuries.

A second police-linked account published after the initial reports gave a more specific but partly different sequence. That version, attributed to a traffic enforcement officer from Bogor Police, said two motorcycles were moving in the same direction when one allegedly tried to pass and touched the right handlebar area of another motorcycle. The rider lost control, the victim fell to the right side of the road and a Hino truck coming from the opposite direction could not avoid her. That version said she was struck by the truck's front right tire.

Both accounts agree on the central facts: EAP fell from a motorcycle on Prada Samlawi Road, a heavy Hino truck ran over her and she died at the scene. The difference concerns the exact movement of the vehicles before the impact and which truck wheel struck her. No publicly available police document was found that resolves that discrepancy.

Officers from Polsek Rumpin and Bogor Police went to the crash site for a scene examination. The case was placed under the traffic accident unit of Bogor Police. Local reports said Bhabinkamtibmas personnel and Rumpin police officers also went to the family's home after the crash.

The collision drew renewed attention to heavy truck traffic in Rumpin, an area where residents and local groups have repeatedly criticized the movement of mining-related trucks during daytime hours. A local road advocacy group said the crash added to the number of fatal incidents involving heavy trucks and motorcycles in Bogor Regency.

Bogor Regency has rules limiting the operating hours of special mining cargo vehicles. The current regulation, Perbup Bogor No. 56 of 2023, changed the earlier rule and sets the operating window for mining cargo trucks from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. The rule covers vehicles carrying mining materials such as soil, sand, stone and limestone.

The crash happened at about 00:1:30 p.m., far outside that overnight operating window. The truck involved was reported to be empty, and the available reports did not establish whether it was legally classified as a special mining cargo vehicle at the time of the crash. No official enforcement finding was located saying that the driver or the truck owner violated the operating-hour regulation in this specific case.

The available record also does not establish the motorcycle's speed, the truck's speed, the exact spacing between the vehicles or whether the motorcycle was overloaded under traffic law. Police reported that three people were on the motorcycle, but the publicly available statements did not include a final legal conclusion on fault.

No later verified announcement was found regarding charges, a court filing, a final accident reconstruction or a completed police finding.
