train

A teen in Eunice is suffering from minor injuries after he was hit by a train over the weekend.

Investigators aren't sure how many people were on board, but say none of the injuries are believed to be life-threatening.

The accident happened on the Hudson line which carries about 26,000 weekly riders.

A response team from Olin Corp., under contract with the railroad, sealed the leak and the train resumed its westbound journey.

"The victim received injuries to his right knee, right arm, and head area," Mouton said.

Deputies say Levar Babineaux never heard or saw the train as he was driving across the railroad tracks.
