A 15-year-old boy Thursday became the second Czech teenager this week to die after coming in contact with high-voltage railway wires, local media said. The victims in each case climbed atop rail cars and brushed the overhead wires, police told the Novinky news agency in a statement carried by dpa. The latest death occurred at a train station in the east Czech city of Olomouc when the boy and a girl climbed onto a parked railcar's roof. Police said the boy may have slipped before touching the 3,000-volt wire. The girl was not injured but the boy suffered heavy burns and died at the scene. On Saturday, a 13-year-old boy died in hospital from burns incurred when he touched an overhead railway wire a week earlier in the southern town of Veseli nad Luznici. -- SP 2343 Local Time 2043 GMT
