Train crash teen dies in hospital
THE 17-year-old Jimmy Mbaabu, who was crushed by a train at Kibarani Railway Bridge, on Tuesday night, died yesterday at the Coast General hospital.
Coast provincial director of medical services Khadija Shikely said Mbaabu’s legs had to be cut off to save his life. She said he had lost a lot of blood during the accident.
“When we received him at the hospital, chances of him surviving were low as he was in bad condition,” said Shikely. The victim was drunk and was on his way home when the accident occurred.
Witnesses said police neglected calls to rescue him. Changamwe police boss Joseph Muthee denied the allegations saying that they received the news at around 6am on Wednesday morning.
