Train crushes 3 persons who unknowingly parked on a rail line




Yesterday afternoon, tragedy struck in Ilorin. The victims, two young men and a lady, were inside a Toyota Camry car with all windows wound up when they were crushed by a moving train coming from the north toOffa, Kwara State.
With the car’s windows wound up, the 3 of them unknowingly parked on the railway line and were said to be carried away by what they were doing in the car.
According to an eyewitness: “As the train was fast approaching, several shouts and alerts by the passers-by to the 3 occupants inside the Toyota Camry car to drive away from the railway line failed as they could not hear what the people were saying. Consequently, the oncoming train heavily crushed the car with the occupants, causing commotion and pandemonium in the area.” Their remains were immediately taken to University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital.
