Authorities in Odessa are investigating the electrocution of two teenage boys. One of them has died, while the other sustained serious injuries. Rescue teams were also on the scene to assist the affected individual.
According to police reports, the incident occurred yesterday evening, March 9, near a railway station on Balska Road, as reported by a passerby. Preliminary findings suggest that the boys climbed onto a stationary train, where they were electrocuted.
