LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Federal transportation safety investigators on Saturday were investigating the Nevada crash between a tractor-trailer rig and an Amtrak train, where authorities believe more bodies may be found in the wreckage.
At least two people were confirmed killed and dozens injured in the Friday morning collision at a crossing of U.S. Route 95 near the town of Lovelock, about 70 miles east of Reno, the Nevada Highway Patrol said.
Nevada Highway Patrol spokesman Dan Lopez said further fatalities may be discovered during a search that was proceeding slowly because the burned-out train cars were considered unstable and dangerous to enter.
"We know that people have seen bodies, but we can't get to them in the wreckage," Lopez said. "The biggest thing right now is the safety of the workers."
