Car Collides with Train in Kingsburg, Killing Man
KINGSBURG, CA (August 23, 2019) – On Wednesday night, a man was killed in Kingsburg when the car he was driving collided with a train. The August 21 incident occurred close to where Simpson Street and Sierra Street intersect.
The time was roughly a little before 5:00 p.m.
Reports say a vehicle—described as a Honda Civic—collided with a Union Pacific train, which had been heading south. According to Kevin Pendley, who is a sergeant with the Kingsburg Police Department, the investigation appears to show that the driver had attempted to go around the closed crossing arms. The man’s vehicle was then hit by the train.
