On a train to Kryvyi Rih, a man harassed a 15-year-old girl.

Last night on the "Lviv - Zaporizhzhia" train, which passes through Kryvyi Rih and Dnipro, a scandalous incident occurred. One of the passengers, an adult male, was reportedly harassing a 15-year-old girl in a compartment. This information comes from "Vidomo," citing "Svoї. Kryvyi Rih".

It is reported that the underage girl was traveling alone to Kryvyi Rih and boarded the train in Khmelnytskyi the night before.

According to the girl, around midnight, a man began to touch her inappropriately while she was in her underwear. The frightened 15-year-old passenger ran to the conductor for help, but she merely suggested a different seat and did not contact the police.

The girl informed her mother about the situation over the phone, who then reported it to the authorities in the morning.

Preliminary information indicates that the perpetrator disembarked in Kropyvnytskyi and did not return to the carriage, despite having a ticket to Kryvyi Rih.

At the same time, another passenger in the compartment claims she saw the man asking the girl for painkillers during the night, but she did not notice any inappropriate behavior.

Why an adult man would seek medication from a child when there are many adults nearby remains an open question.

The authorities are investigating the circumstances.
