The LA Times reports the truck was stuck some period of time before the train hit it based on the crossing gates not being demolished so he may have left the area when the train approached. The police are investigating that he may have been drunk when the truck got stuck. He was taken to the hospital before he was arrested and I hope they did an alcohol and tox screen there.
Hearing this idiot was somehow possibly crossing parallel with the tracks at the crossing.
Four still in ICU still in critical condition...
He was on his cell phone when he was found nearly 2 miles away from the scene, after fleeing the scene..Cops are not saying anything yet about that. They sure seem tight lipped about this guy, as if this were some kind of high security confidential event.
