Three passengers on a MetroRail train were taken to a hospital this morning after the train collided with a car at a downtown intersection.
The accident occurred about 9:20 a.m. as the driver of the car attempted an illegal left turn at Main and Leeland, said Metro spoieswoman[sic] Raequel Roberts.
The passengers were taken to St. Joseph Medical Center with injuries that were deemed non-life-threatening, Roberts said.
The car was traveling on Leeland when it crossed the northbound train's path and was struck on the driver's side, Roberts said.
The driver, who was not injured, was cited by police for turning illegally, she said.
Anyone else notice that when the public is at fault the citation is issued immediately, but when Metro appears to be at fault there's a lengthy delay coupled with a series of press releases issued by Metro smearing the hittee?
I guess that's all part of the job when you're a spoieswoman?
