A motorist died and two others were injured after a pickup truck collided with a Dallas Area Rapid Transit train Sunday evening.<\/p>\n
Dallas Fire-Rescue officials responded to the scene of a crash about 4:50\u00a0p.m. near the intersection of Audelia Road and Royal Lane, DFR spokesman\u00a0Jason Evans said.<\/p>\n
The truck crossed onto the tracks and was struck by a Blue Line train, according to a statement from DART. The truck driver, who hasn’t been publicly identified, died at the scene.<\/p>\n
The train operator wasn’t injured, though two train passengers sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were transported to the hospital. The remaining passengers on the train refused treatment from DFR personnel, according to the statement.<\/p>\n
Train service has been suspended between the LBJ\/Skillman and White Rock stations, the statement said, and a bus bridge has been established to move passengers between stations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A motorist died and two others were injured after a pickup truck collided with a Dallas Area Rapid…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":327369,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,104,103,109184,110642,88032,89138,90556,100510],"class_list":["post-336544","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-dallas","tag-dallas","tag-dallas-headlines","tag-dallas-news","tag-news-public-safety","tag-tp-accidental-death","tag-tp-dallas-fortworth","tag-tp-dallas-county","tag-tp-dart","tag-tp-traffic-accidents"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/336544","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=336544"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/336544\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/327369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=336544"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=336544"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=336544"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
