Two Dead After Falling Off Train In Lagos

Two persons have reportedly died after a train averted collision with an abandoned commercial bus on Friday morning at Pen Cinema, Agege, Lagos.

It was gathered that the three persons were sitting atop the train when it veered upon sighting the bus from afar. The incident also left one person injured.

Witnesses said the deceased fell on the rail line and was shredded by the moving train, while the other two fell by the bus, losing some body parts. The train was said to have continued its journey, oblivious of the casualties.

This incident angered hoodlums who set the bus ablaze as onlookers rushed the injured to nearby Orile-Agege General Hospital.
