The truck's trailer caught fire
As we were informed by the officer on duty at the Police Headquarters in Poznań and Maciej Święcichowski from the press office of the Police Headquarters in Poznań, there was a fire in a semi-trailer of a truck that was transported by a freight train. The driver stopped the train for safety reasons. This stopped the passenger train carrying Legia Warszawa fans to the match against Lech Poznań. About a thousand fans got off the train near Górczyn (part of Poznań). They are waiting for buses that will take them to the stadium. The first train with fans arrived at the Palędzie station (destination station) and the fans took buses to the match.
