Vranje: Car Hits Woman Crossing Street With Children

A woman was injured in Vranje on Monday evening after a car struck her while she was crossing the street with children. The crash happened on Bore Stankovica Street, right in the city center, around 7 p.m., according to local and national outlets that reported on the incident on Monday and Tuesday.

According to the available reports, the woman was crossing the road with children when a vehicle hit her. It is not known how many children were with her or whether any of them were hurt in the crash. None of the sources give their ages or say whether they needed medical attention.

Emergency crews from the Vranje Health Center arrived at the scene shortly after the crash. Once she received first aid, the injured woman was taken by ambulance to the Vranje Health Center for further treatment. No official information is yet available on her condition or the extent of her injuries.

Police carried out an on-site investigation. The circumstances of the crash, including whether the driver followed traffic rules, have not yet been established, and authorities have not said who was behind the wheel.

What Sources Disagree On

Outlets that reported on the crash do not agree on every detail. Jugpress, whose story was also picked up by Naslovi.net, reports that the woman was crossing at a marked pedestrian crossing and suffered serious injuries. That report describes it as a “serious traffic accident.”

OK Radio, Alo, Republika and Informer, which also covered the same incident, do not mention a marked crosswalk and do not specify how severe the injuries were. Their reports simply state that a car hit the woman as she was crossing the road with children, without saying exactly where she crossed or how badly she was hurt.

The discrepancy matters. Whether the woman was on a marked crosswalk directly affects who violated traffic rules and how the case proceeds. So far, no official source, neither police nor prosecutors, has confirmed which version is accurate.

What Is Known and What Isn’t

Based on the reports published so far, the following is confirmed:

• the crash happened on Monday, September 14, around 7 p.m.
• it occurred on Bore Stankovica Street in central Vranje
• a car hit the woman as she was crossing the road with children
• the injured woman was taken to the Vranje Health Center
• police carried out an on-site investigation

It remains unknown whether the woman was on a marked crosswalk, how serious her injuries are, whether the children with her were hurt, who was driving, and what vehicle was involved.

Prosecutors Have Not Commented Yet

According to Jugpress, the relevant prosecutor’s office had not commented on the crash by the time its report was published. It is not known whether any charges have been filed against the driver, or whether the case is being handled as a criminal matter or a misdemeanor.

The driver has not been named in any of the available reports, and neither the driver’s age nor place of residence has been disclosed. The injured woman’s age and place of residence are also unknown.

The newsroom will continue following the case and will publish new details as official information from police or prosecutors becomes available.
