Woman Killed By Shopping Cart Graphic Warning

Sorry if a repost, could not find this on LL




A horrific video has emerged of a grandmother being killed by a runaway supermarket trolley.


The accident, which was caught on CCTV, happened on Friday morning at Lianhua supermarket in Shanghai.


The 60-year-old, who was shopping alone, died from horrific injuries after being hit by the metal trolley at the Chinese store.



The overloaded trolley smashes into the shopper, throwing her against a pillar six to seven metres away.

A few seconds later, two panicked men can be seen running down the escalator to help the woman, followed closely by another bystander.

A crowd amasses around the fatally injured woman, with people picking off debris as they try to reach her.

She was taken to a nearby hospital, but succumbed to her horrific injuries.


According to a report on static.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sgseen/this_urban_jungle/1848732/e static.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sgseen/this_urban_jungle/1848732/e two men had loaded a trolley of their own with 15 crates of drinks, instead of using a supermarket trolley - store trolleys are adapted to lock onto the ridges on the escalator.


Police are currently investigating the incident.
