A man was killed after being struck by a train at Nanjing rail station in Jiangsu Province last Sunday.
The man crossed the tracks just as the train was approaching. The driver immediately stopped, but the man was left trapped between the train and the platform. A team of firefighters and doctors arrived at the scene immediately and tried to save the man.
Unfortunately, after two hours the man died from excessive bleeding.
According to local media, the man intended to cross over to another platform, so he jumped on the tracks, but the train pulled into the station before he could climb onto the opposite side.
