SARAJEVO, Aug.23 (Xinhua) -- A train collision killed two people and severely injured another Wednesday night in Donja Jablanica, a city located 85 km southwest of Bosnia and Herzegovina's capital Sarajevo, local police told media.

The head-to-head collision of two cargo trains occurred at the Jablanica Railway Station, shortly after midnight, Ljudevit Maric, spokesperson of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Herzegovina-Neretva Canton, told local media Thursday morning.

The accident happened when a fully-loaded train and an empty one coming from the opposite direction collided. The locomotives and several wagons of both trains were thrown off the track as a result of the impact.

One person managed to get out of the train after the accident, and was immediately taken to the hospital.

The collision also forced operators to suspend railway traffic, according to the spokesperson.
