"A cargo train and a school minibus carrying 10 children clashed at an unregulated railroad crossing. … The driver and the guide died, and one child was hospitalized in a moderately grave condition," the source said.
According to a statement released by Russian Railways, the incident occurred at 11:08 a.m. Moscow time (8:08 GMT), when the driver of the minibus ignored both the red light signal and the sound alarm, and attempted to cross the railroad.
The prosecution launched a criminal case on charges of rendering services that do not meet safety requirements, leading to the death of two people by negligence.
