The level crossing is in the dark, and the police secured the accident site.

As locals told "Vijesta", the victim lived not far from the accident site.

"She went to the store and on her way back, crossing the crossing, the train hit her. As you can see, the crossing is in the dark, there is grass all around, and she is getting older," said a neighbor of the victim.

He recalled that for years they have been asking for the crossing to be lit and secured because accidents have happened at the mentioned place several times.
