A youngster and his 10-year-old brother were killed in a road mishap, while another person riding with them on the same two-wheeler, sustained injuries in Shamirpet on Sunday evening.

Police said that Mahesh, 20, was dropping off his younger brother, Krishna, at his school hostel when they met with an accident.
