Light Rail train, ambulance collide
An ambulance heading to a call and a light rail train collided late Monday near the airport. There were 60 people on the train, but no serious injuries were reported.
Early Tuesday, it appeared that there was some confusion over who was responsible for changing the traffic signal at the Bloomington intersection near 494 and 34th Ave. Both ambulances and Light Rail Trains can change the light. The train hit the back of the ambulance.
As soon as the ambulance was hit, ambulance drivers ran onto the train to check if any of the 60 passengers on the train were injured. Passengers were taken by bus to their final destination.
