One of the eyewitnesses who happened to be on the street at the time of the tragedydescribed the shocking details:
"It all happened in a split second, no one even had time to shout out. The trolley was passing along the street when a sharp, loud sound was heard - the rear view mirror had caught a rope hanging from the building. The next thing I saw was a terrible fall onto the roof of the vehicle. The trolley stopped immediately, shocked passengers ran outside, but the unfortunate young man could not be saved. Soon the firemen arrived to carry him down... The scene was horrific."
All that the doctors who arrived at the site could do was pronounce the man dead.
