Lina was struck when a fan tumbled from a balcony at a high-rise in Voronezh, and she promptly reported the incident to the police. Gazeta.ru reported that she plans to pursue justice, including potential steps through the prosecutor and the courts if necessary.
The investigation is underway, and Lina said she immediately contacted the police, filed a report, and submitted a formal statement. She recalled that the moment of the incident left her in shock. She described taking a few steps forward as the event unfolded, only to retreat and call the authorities. She explained that she made the matter public the day after to ensure there was no suppression of the case by investigators. If circumstances require it, she indicated she would approach the prosecutor and pursue court action.
Lina emphasized that she did not suffer serious physical injuries, but the experience was deeply frightening.
Physically, she noted, the impact did not cause lasting harm. She felt pain and a surge of fear in the moment of the fall, but the immediate impact faded as the shock subsided. The rope brushed her hand and the net struck her leg, which helped limit further injury. In her account, the sequence of events did not lead to lasting damage, though the emotional impact remained significant.
With the incident circulating on social media, Lina shared a video showing the fan being hurled from a height. The footage suggests the object nearly struck a pedestrian before landing on the ground below.
Preliminary information places the origin of the fan at the sixth floor of building 144B on Shishkov Street. Authorities are working to identify the owners and determine responsibility for the dangerous act.
In a separate incident reported earlier in the Urals region, a man and a girl became involved in a dispute that ended with him throwing a cat from the fourth floor. Authorities handled that case separately and are pursuing appropriate actions based on the circumstances and local laws.
