Bražuolė bridge bombing was an explosion under a railway bridge at around 7 a.m. on 6 November 1994 over the Bražuolė River on the Vilnius–Kaunas Railway near Vievis, Lithuania. While the bridge was heavily damaged, train derailment was avoided due to lucky coincidence. Two passenger trains were scheduled to cross the bridge soon after the explosion. One, warned by a local resident, slowed and managed to cross the bridge on the side that suffered little damage. It then alerted the oncoming train which stopped in time. It is believed that the bombing is connected to the Coup of the Volunteers in September 1993 when about 150 armed men from the Lithuanian National Defence Volunteer Forces (then known as Savanoriškoji krašto apsaugos tarnyba or SKAT) left their posts and presented political demands as well as to the murder of SKAT officer Juras Abromavičius who was investigating the coup and the bombing in January 1997. None of the three incidents have been solved and no one has been charged.
