FRANCISCO - A train slammed into a coal truck early this morning at the entrance of the Black Beauty Coal Mine.

The collision occurred just before 2 a.m., according to WFIE.

The coal truck was leaving the mine and began to cross the railroad tracks when it was hit by the train, demolishing the truck.

The truck's driver was uninjured but a passenger was taken to the hospital with head injuries.

The accident happened at CR 880 E.
