At least four people, who had been out for a Christmas Eve celebration, suffered injuries after leaping off a train they had hitched a ride on.
The four, part of a group of young people returning from a night party at Drips in Lugari Station around 2 a.m., opted for a complimentary journey on the Kenya-Uganda railway.
According to a witness, the youths, suspected to be drank, hitched a ride on the train, enjoying a smooth free journey from Lugari Station to Kiwanja Ndege, a distance of approximately 5 kilometers.
Upon reaching their destination, they daringly jumped off, resulting in some sustaining significant injuries. One of them even broke his phone in the process.
