Vlak koji je kongresnike prevozio na okupljanje u Zapadnoj Virginiji sa kamionom se sudario 200 kilometara od Washingtona.
Na okupljanje bi avionom trebao stići i američki predsjednik Donald Trump koji je obaviješten o situaciji.
Neki kongresnici nakon nesreće su se oglasili na Twitteru, javlja USA Today.
"U šoku sam i velikim bolovima. Ovdje je vrlo kaotično", napisao je na Twitteru kongresnik Chuck Fleischmann koji je u trenutku sudara bio na putu prema WC-u te je pretprio ozljede vrata, leđa i noge.
I was on the train heading to the GOP Retreat when an accident occurred. I am ok, and working with doctors that have arrived.

Our train heading to the GOP Retreat in West Virginia has been involved in an accident. I am safe but first responders are treating minor injuries on the train & treating the truck drivers. Praying....
