An incident in Ufa has drawn attention after a pedestrian affair involving a garbage truck. A local Telegram channel known as Mash Batash reported that an elderly man was struck while walking near a roadway and subsequently suffered severe injuries that led to the loss of his leg. The report places the event on Tukhvata Yanabi Street, noting that the truck driver followed a pensioner who was moving along the road and reversed into the man, causing the collision.
According to the Telegram post, the vehicle halted briefly after the impact, while the elderly man remained pinned beneath the truck’s wheels. The driver then exited the cabin and attempted to lift the victim, but the effort proved unsuccessful. The situation prompted onlookers to call for aid, and emergency responders arrived to provide assistance at the scene.
At the medical facility, the pensioner was diagnosed with multiple traumatic injuries, including crushed legs, broken ribs, a broken shoulder, and a crushed head. Medical staff proceeded with a surgical decision that resulted in the amputation of the left leg to save the patient’s life and manage life-threatening injuries.
In a separate incident reported from Chelyabinsk, a woman reportedly lost her legs in an accident. Investigators indicated that a 26-year-old man, who was intoxicated and a passenger in a car, collided with a pole, leading to the serious injuries observed in the surviving victims.

The evolving details of such incidents emphasize the seriousness of road safety and the swift decisions that medical professionals must make when trauma is severe. These events underscore the need for vigilance among drivers and pedestrians alike, as well as the importance of immediate emergency response when accidents occur.
