A RUSSIAN eye surgeon has been killed in a freak accident after an “ice bullet” from a lorry smashed her car windscreen and impaled her eye in Siberia.
Evgenia Elistratova, 27, died instantly of serious head injuries when the artificial hailstone was kicked up by the truck crashed through the glass.
Her devastated husband Sergey Elistratov was also in the car when the terrifying ordeal took place, prompting him to stop the vehicle but was unable to save her.
Elistratov was not hurt in the accident, however his wife Evgenia was pronounced dead by paramedics at the scene.
The accident was close to Labytnangi just north of the Arctic circle in western Siberia.
The large truck was in front of the car on a remote road and its driver knew nothing about the “ice bullet” kicked up by his lorry’s wheels.
The lethal ice lump was mixed with gravel, according to police.
The couple was driving to the shore of the Ob River, the seventh largest in the world, in their Chevrolet-Niva car, when the eye doctor was tragically killed.
She had recently taken a new job in a hospital in the polar town.
