A child was closing the metal gate when the victim walked in front of it and right at the time, the gate collapsed on her.

As soon as the gate fell, the child accompanying Girija rushed to call others for help. Soon after, a man is seeing running towards the gate, lifting it up and picking up the injured child.

The 3.5-year-old child suffered critical injuries and was declared dead before receiving treatment.

"While they were playing, one child closed the sliding metal gate. The gate fell when the three-and-half-year-old child ran towards it. It seems the gate came out of the sliding channel and fell. An accidental death case has been registered," the Pimpri Chinchwad police station official said.

According to DCP Shivaji Pawar, four children were playing in the area, with two going behind the gate and Girija and the other child standing in front of the gate.

He said that the gate-- weighing hundreds of kilograms -- fell on Girija when another child tried to close it by sliding it.

Police said that once the parents file a complaint, all angles will be probed by them, including potential negligence, Free Press Journal reported.
