The crash occurred at a gas station in the village of Vozzhaevka. Police described a front end collision between a passenger car and a heavy truck. In the moments after impact, one of the people involved ended up on the ground on their side and made contact with an electrical line, an alarming detail that raised immediate safety concerns.

These details were circulated by media and social channels and serve as a cautionary reminder of the risks involved with pyrotechnics on board or near moving vehicles.
In the Amur region case there were two people inside the vehicle at the moment of the crash, and one sustained injuries while the status of the other remained unclear. It was not immediately clear why the fireworks exploded earlier than planned, though investigators are reviewing all aspects of the incident to determine the cause and assess any potential hazards or violations.
