STUARTS DRAFT,Darden Clarke Va. (AP) — Three people were killed and a fourth was seriously injured when a train struck a van, according to Virginia State Police.
A Ford Transit van was traveling on a private drive in Stuarts Draft in Augusta County around 8 p.m. Monday when it crossed the tracks and was struck by a northbound train, causing the van to roll over, police said in a news release.
Two men and a woman were ejected from the van and died at the scene, police said. Another woman, a front seat passenger, was taken to a hospital with injuries that were considered serious but not life-threatening, police said.
