But when he crossed the road, Bagus was hit by a motorbike. Because his right leg was so badly injured, his right leg had to be amputated by a doctor.

"My leg was amputated because I was the victim of an accident when I was about to eat, I didn't wait for my mother (when I came home from school)," Bagus told VOI, Tuesday, December 5.
