A young man suffered serious facial injuries when a tire exploded while he was filling the air in Shastamkota, Kollam. While filling the tire with mechanical assistance, it exploded with a loud noise. Muhammad Faisil, a resident of Pallisserikal, Shastamkota, was injured. The incident took place at a tire shop in Anjilimoot, Shastamkota, yesterday morning. When I arrived to inflate the tire, there were no employees in the shop. Without waiting, Muhammad Faisal started filling the air by himself. When it exceeded the limit, the tire exploded with a loud noise.
