Train kills woman crossing tracks

The SAPS found the woman wearing a white dress and a maroon jersey.

A woman, suspected to be in her 70s, was struck by a train and died.

The incident occurred between Ibazelo and Tsenelong sections on Tuesday last week.

The SAPS was called to the railway line during the early hours of Tuesday.

The Tembisa SAPS spokesperson, Captain Manyadza Ralidzivha, said the SAPS found the woman wearing a white dress and a maroon jersey.

“The elderly woman was unknown. We are requesting members of the community to help identify the deceased. We urge the community to take care when they cross the railway line.

“The place where the deceased was struck is a danger to the community. We have many people who lose their lives while crossing the railway line,” said Capt Ralidzivha.
