HOUSTON — Authorities in Texas say an 11-year-old girl has been run over by a train that severed one of her legs and seriously injured the other.
Officers said the accident happened when the girl was playing with friends on railroad tracks behind their homes east of Houston on Friday.
Harris County sheriff’s Lt. John Legg said the children would grab the side of a slow-moving railroad car and let it pull them along.
Legg said the girl slipped and fell under the train.
