A 14-YEAR-OLD boy was killed by a train at Dryharts village near Taung on Monday. According to the North West police spokesperson in Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati cluster, Serg Tryphosa van Rooyen, Kabo Mogapi who suffered from a hearing impairment was walking along the train tracks when the atrocity took place.
“The train that was approaching him from behind rang the warning horn, but due to his hearing impairment he could not respond. The driver of the train tried to apply his brakes but it was too late and the boy was hit by the train,” van Rooyen said.
She said a case of culpable homicide was opened at Pudimoe Police Station, while investigation continues.
