A woman of about 70 years old was struck by the Jerusalem Light Rail in the Pisgat Ze’ev neighborhood of Jerusalem on Thursday evening and killed.

MDA paramedics who arrived at the scene found her without signs of life and with multi-system injuries.

Sadly, they were forced to declare her death at the scene.

Paramedic Shmuel Orlov said: ‘We arrived at the scene and saw the woman trapped under the train while she was unconscious and suffering from very severe multi-system injuries. Unfortunately, her injuries were critical and we had to pronounce her death at the scene.”
