Washington Metro Train Crash

Two Metro trains have collided around the D.C./Maryland border.

At least one person was killed Monday in a rush-hour collision between two Metro transit trains in northeast Washington.

A number of other passengers were severely injured, said District of Columbia fire spokesman Alan Etter, in what he describes as a “mass casualty event.” He said crews were cutting apart the trains to get people out.

Fox News is reporting two fatalities and possibly dozens injured. The trains are a part of the Red Line.

UPDATE: The death toll is continuing to rise. I am now seeing reports of six dead and at least 70 injured, many seriously.
