Twenty-one people have been hurt after a train and a truck collided in Los Angeles.
Officials said the Metrolink train, carrying nearly
200 passengers, struck the rear of the vehicle on the tracks in Sun
Valley on Tuesday morning.
Passengers who have been taken to
hospital have injuries that are not life threatening, according to the
Los Angeles Fire Department.
Metrolink said the six carriage train was en route to LA when it happened.
Aerial footage showed the train stopped at an intersection as firefighters helped people disembark.
A
section of San Fernando Road had been temporarily closed by the
Department of Transportation as emergency services treated people with
minor injures at the scene.
Officials said the train is now on the move again but passengers are being warned to expect delays.
