On Friday evening, passengers jumped out of a train at Ennerdale Station in Johannesburg.

It’s believed that 120 people were injured in the incident.

“When paramedics arrived they found that the rain did not crash or derail at all. Reports indicate that for reasons still to be investigated, the brakes seem to have locked causing people to fall. In the panic, it appears some of the commuters jumped from the moving train.” Netcare 911 spokesperson Chris Botha said in a statement.

Botha added they passengers had serious to minor injuries. They were treated by various paramedics and taken to hospitals
