... as train dismembers woman in Lagos

A middle-aged woman sitting across the rail track at Shogunle area of Lagos State was, yesterday, crushed to death by a passenger train.
The incident happened few metres away from the Arena Shopping Complex, Oshodi, as it was gathered that the Ogun-bound train left Oshodi Station at around 4.45p.m., heading toward Shogunle Station.
The woman was sitting on the rail track, oblivious of the approaching train in spite of the blaring horn. The fast-approaching train dismembered her body.
Passers-by and sympathisers, who gathered round the corpse, were shocked as many of them lamented that in spite of burglary fencing by Lagos State Government, some residents still encroached on the track.
