Brightline train collides with fire truck in Delray Beach, multiple people injured

Officials are investigating a train crash with a fire truck in crowded downtown Delray Beach Saturday afternoon.

The crash took place in the area of East Atlantic Avenue and Southeast First Avenue.

A Brightline train was stopped on the tracks, its front completely destroyed about a block away from a twisted fire truck that lay on its side. Its ladder had been ripped off and lay in the grass several yards away.

We will begin our evacuation procedures momentarily,” an announcement could be heard blaring from the train’s speakers about 12:30 p.m. Shortly after, passengers began evacuating from the stopped train onto a new train.

Delray Beach Police and Fire Rescue, city officials and Palm Beach County Fire Rescue were on scene but have not provided many details about the crash.

Streams of passersby flocked to the scene from where they had been working, enjoying brunch and shopping, taking videos and asking officials what had taken place.
