MIAMI (AP) - Authorities say a Metromover train crashed into a boom lift in downtown Miami, killing one construction worker and injuring another.
Miami-Dade police tell local news outlets the incident happened around 1 a.m. Wednesday. No passengers were on the train, which runs from 5 a.m. to midnight.
Emergency crews took both men to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital.
Miami Fire Rescue spokesman Ignatius Carroll told reporters one man was dangling from the side of the crane and was helped to the ground by co-workers. When crews arrived both men were on the ground.
Metromover officials say they'll run buses in the areas affected by the crash. Another section of the train's loop through downtown isn't affected and is running as normal.
Authorities are investigating.
