Emergency rescuers evacuate bodies of victims
from a collided commuter train and fuel tanker in Jakarta, Indonesia, 09
December 2013.
|
Police say a commuter
train slammed into a passenger minibus at a railroad crossing in Indonesia's
capital, killing at least 14 people and seriously injuring 10 others. Tambora neighborhood
police chief Wirdhanto says the bus driver allegedly ignored the warning
signals when he crossed the tracks and was rammed by the train in western
Jakarta on Sunday.
AP report continues:
Wirdhanto,
who like many Indonesians uses only one name, says 13 people in the minibus
were killed instantly and another died in a hospital.
He
says the train was traveling from Jakarta to the neighboring town of Bogor with
eight cars, and all train signals were working at the time of the crash.
