A teenager who got stuck between the train cars was removed from the electric train "Revdа - Yekaterinburg."
A teenager who was riding between train cars was removed from the electric train "Revdа - Yekaterinburg" on May 29, 2026. The "zaцепер" was detained and handed over to the police by a security guard of the electric train in the Sverdlovsk region, the press service of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for Transport in the Ural Federal District reported on Thursday. In a conversation with the juvenile inspector, the 15-year-old offender stated that he is in the 9th grade at one of the schools in the Railway District of Yekaterinburg.
The schoolboy was noticed by the security guard after he rode on the coupling of the electric train "Revdа - Yekaterinburg" for quite a long distance, covering several stops, in order to experience extreme sensations.
The teenager first traveled to the Reshety station, where he jumped onto the automatic coupling of a stopped electric train heading back to Yekaterinburg. Endangering his life, the teenager traveled 26 kilometers. According to the ninth grader, he had not engaged in "zaцепер" activities before.
"On May 27 at about 18:30, a report was received at the duty station of the Linear Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia at the Yekaterinburg-Passenger station that at the railway stopping point Elektrodepo, a security guard accompanying the electric train 'Revdа - Yekaterinburg' detained a teenager who rode on the coupling between the first and second cars of the train," the message from the Linear Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia at the Yekaterinburg-Passenger station states.
The security company employee handed over the "zaцепер" to the transport police who arrived at the scene. The inspector immediately contacted the teenager's mother. She came to the Linear Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia at the Yekaterinburg-Passenger station to pick up her son. The inspectors strongly recommended that she monitor her child's leisure activities to avoid tragic consequences.
In the presence of a legal representative, the juvenile inspectors conducted a preventive conversation with the young offender and reminded him of the real dangers of "zaцепинг," discussing the risks: falling from the train, electric shock, collision with obstacles (platforms, traffic lights, bridges), thermal burns from heated brake resistors of the train, and falling onto the tracks.
An administrative protocol was drawn up against the mother of the minor under part 1 of Article 5.35 of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation. Information about the incident was sent to the territorial commission for juvenile affairs, to the internal affairs department at the minor's place of residence, and to the educational institution where the young offender studies.
