Woman Crushed, Man’s Legs Torn Off As They Made Love On Rail Tracks

A Ukranian couple's inability to rein in their passion for
each other ended in tragedy when a woman was killed
by a train and her partner had his legs torn off during
pre-dawn love-making on a railway track, police say.
The accident took place in the southeastern Ukrainian
region of Zaporizhia early on Saturday.
"Returning from our friends', my girlfriend and I could
not overcome our passionate nature and wanted to feel a
sense of thrill near a railway track," a police statement
quoted the 41-year-old man as saying.
A police spokesman separately said on Sunday that the
pair was believed to have been drunk.
The woman died on the spot while the man was
hospitalised with his legs torn off below the knee.
Police did not release the names of the victims, saying
it had opened a criminal probe over the safety violation.
