The man was taken to hospital and is in good health
A shocking accident was caught on security camera at a train station in India. In the video, two inspectors are seen on the platform of the station Kharagpur Junction and chatting when suddenly a cable e.git lands on a controller and electrocutes it.
Then the man, after standing still for a while, falls onto the tracks. The man he was talking to rushes away in fright.
A freak accident – a long piece of loose cable, taken by a bird somehow came in contact with the OHE wire and the other end came down and touched a TTE’s head. He suffered burn injuries but is out of danger and under treatment – at Kharagpur station yesterday afternoon! #Accident pic.twitter.com/ObEbzd1cOF
