TRAIN HITS PEDESTRIAN... OR NOT

A train conductor traveling east through Elyria Sunday night contacted the Elyria Police Department reporting that he had struck one, maybe two people. The Conductor said that the incident occurred in the area of West River Road on the tracks. Elyria Police Officers, Elyria Fire Firefighters and LifeCare Ambulance Paramedics responded to the area and began searching for a victim. The nearly one hour search covered approximately 3 miles on both sides of the tracks and turned up no victims.
