Reports surfaced regarding a significant traffic accident near Vilnius on the Kleboniškis bridge, initially reported at 5:12 pm. A reader who shared video footage from the scene documented the collision, which appeared to involve six vehicles. Emergency services, including firefighters and medical personnel, were observed arriving at the site.
Separately, news coverage also reported on a separate incident involving a car striking a bus stop, which allegedly resulted in injuries to two women. Later, at 5:19 pm, the news portal “Kaunas” provided an update concerning a separate traffic incident. A firefighter from the Kaunas Fire Rescue Department confirmed that, regarding the specific incident they were monitoring, no injuries had occurred.
The official statement characterized the event as a “simple technical traffic accident.”
These reports highlight multiple separate traffic incidents occurring in the region. While initial video evidence suggested a large-scale accident near the bridge, the subsequent confirmation from the Kaunas-based fire department indicated a minor technical issue, contradicting earlier reports of serious injury. The varying details suggest that multiple accidents were being reported simultaneously across different locations, requiring varied emergency responses.
Authorities confirmed the primary focus of the Kaunas Fire Rescue Department was on assessing the situation as a minor traffic accident.
