"My position was lying down, I jumped quickly," he added.

At the time of the incident, there was only Revan in the mattress shop. He wanted to perform the Asr prayer. While Revan's wife was picking up his son.

Revan said, in the angkot there were two people consisting of a driver and a passenger. As a result of this incident, Revan suffered a loss of around Rp. 15 million.

"Closets, mattresses, televisions, refrigerators were broken. There are a lot of mattresses, I don't know how many were destroyed," he said.

"If the angkot doesn't have any damage, I think, they hit the mattress, so there's no damage," he said.
