JAKARTA: Two men were crushed to death by trains in separate accidents Wednesday morning, after they ignored safety barriers and crossed onto the rails.
Andi Anom, 43, was riding his bicycle across the safety barrier at a railway junction near Klender Baru Station in East Jakarta when the Jakarta-Bekasi Express train appeared at high speed.
"He died instantly, with his head crushed and both arms broken," said Adj. First Insp. I Wayan Pharma from Duren Sawit police subprecinct in East Jakarta.
The other victim, Roy Awan, 35, was hit by a train as he crossed the railway track near Senen Station, Central Jakarta, at 9 a.m.
Both of the men's bodies were brought to the morgue at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital, Central Jakarta.
"We usually receive two to three accident reports in a week," said Pharma.
Another body was also brought into the morgue early Wednesday morning. Edi Darmanto, 49, died in Sumber Waras Hospital, West Jakarta, at 11:30 p.m. from an alleged drug overdose.
