Man in stable condition after jumping from bridge onto train

A twenty-year-old man is in intensive care after jumping from a bridge in Pilsen onto a train's coal wagon early on Saturday morning. The man leapt onto the train wagon but subsequently fell onto the tracks when he was electrocuted after standing up and touching a live overhead wire. He was flown to a special unit in Prague where doctors are treating him for burns on 50% of his body. His condition has been described as very serious but stable.
