An officer of the Los Santos Police Department narrowly avoided tragedy earlier this evening after having collided with a Las Venturas-bound LS Cityline passenger train. The train and LSPD cruiser clipped eachother at the midway point of Frederick Bridge, north-east of Palomino Creek. It is believed that the cruiser was stationary at the time.
Immediately following the collision, the train pulled into Linden Station - just short of the bridge - with 2 passengers receiving treatment by the Las Venturas Fire Department for minor injuries. Meanwhile, the Los Santos Fire Department worked at extricating the imperilled officer, whom had been trapped and left unconscious in their cruiser by the impact.
LSPD and LSFD officials have speculated that the collision was not direct or head-on and that the train merely shunted the cruiser off onto the neighbouring line. However, it is currently unknown as to why the officer was on the tracks and what their intentions were.
The officer was transported to All Saints General Hospital in a serious but stable condition. The media are advised to contact the LSPD and San Andreas Transportation Authority for any further inquiries.
