MUNDELEIN, IL – A 41-year-old woman sustained injuries Tuesday in a crash involving a freight train in south-central Lake County, reports Lake & McHenry County Scanner.

The accident occurred shortly before 11:30 a.m. on the tracks that run along North Archer Avenue in the city of Mundelein, which is about 40 miles northwest of Chicago.

Police say that a Canadian National freight train hit a woman near the Metra platform. At this time, it’s unclear if the women fell in front of the train, or if she intentionally entered the train’s path.

Medics transported the victim to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The collision stopped train service at Hawley, Maple, and Dunbar while crews assisted the victim and worked to clear the scene.

A full investigation is underway.
