BAREILLY: A seasoned cricketer and soccer player was killed while trying to save the daughter of a watchman of the three-storey building that collapsed in Maihar town of Satna district on Saturday. Babloo Martin, 40, was standing near the building when he saw it tilting and spotted 12-year-old Prabha in danger. Known to be a good runner, Babloo scampered to the minor and pulled her out, but himself came under the caved-in structure.
