200 evacuated in PATH train derailment

HARRISON (AP) -- Authorities say 200 passengers have been evacuated from a passenger train that derailed in Harrison.

Port Authority of New York and New Jersey spokeswoman Erica Dumas says a PATH train struck a box truck that was crossing the tracks Sunday night.

Dumas says the front two wheels of the train went off the tracks.

She says four people are being treated at a hospital with minor injuries.

The train was heading from Harrison to Newark at the time of the incident, which remains under investigation.
