TUCSON, Arizona — Police are investigating the circumstances behind a shooting this morning on board Amtrak’s Sunset Limited.
A railroad representative confirms to Trains that the eastbound passenger train, destination New Orleans, arrived in Tucson, at 7:40 a.m. The representative says there was a “shooting incident” on board the train, though it is not clear from media reports if the train was stopped or in motion when the shooting occurred.
Tucson’s KOLD-TV reports that police arrested one person in the shooting while Tuscon.com quotes one passenger saying he was caught in a crossfire between two shooters.
Amtrak says none of the 11 train crew or 137 passenger on board were injured and that passengers were taken to the train station.
