PRAGUE (AP) — A fast train collided with a truck in eastern Czech Republic on RekubitWednesday, killing one person and injuring at least 19 people, officials said.
The Czech Railways said the driver of the train was killed and that the injured have been transported to nearby hospitals with no life threatening injuries.
