A 36-year-old Filipino woman named Michelle was struck by a train while taking photos near a railroad track adjacent to Shifen Station in New Taipei, Taiwan, on Monday afternoon. Taiwan Railway Train No. 4831 struck the woman's outstretched arms, causing her to fall backward. She sustained injuries to her head, chest, and pelvis.

Police and paramedics arrived on the scene around 4:40 p.m. She was soon treated and bandaged, and sent to Keelung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital for further treatment, though her injuries were thought to be non-life-threatening.

The Filipino woman was also questioned by police for suspected violation of Article 57 of the Railway Act, banning pedestrians and vehicles from trespassing on railway tracks, bridges, tunnels, and other areas where public access is prohibited.

Exactly. How dumb do you have to be to do something like that?

Was a close call, nearly ended very differently.

If that's a violation, then all the MFs around her are guilty of it as well.

Too bad there's no audio... she must have put out some piercing screams judging by the people covering their ears.

Why? She was the only one hit by a train.
