Worker crushed by steamroller

JAKARTA (JP): A road construction worker has been crushed to
death by a steamroller driven by a friend in the East Parking
Lot, Senayan, Central Jakarta.

Lasman, the victim, was asleep on the road he and his friends
were repairing early yesterday morning when his colleague Azis
decided to move the steamroller to another place.

Azis told police that after traveling a few meters he noticed
that the steamroller was running unsmoothly. He said he thought
the machine was running over a heap of garbage or soil. He was
horrified to see that the body of Lasman, who hailed from the
same town of Banyumas, Central Java, had been broken under the
steamroller's steel wheel.

Azis screamed hysterically before other workers came, the
Terbit evening daily reported yesterday.
