Train crashes into police car with woman handcuffed inside, harrowing video shows

Global News published this video item, entitled “Train crashes into police car with woman handcuffed inside, harrowing video shows” – below is their description.

In a Sept. 16 video released by the Fort Lupton Police Department, a train can be seen crashing into a police vehicle on train tracks in Ford Lupton, Colo., which contained a woman handcuffed by authorities. In the footage, a train horn can be heard in the distance as police look through the vehicle, moments before it is hit by the train.

According to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Yareni Rios-Gonzalez, 20, sustained serious injuries when the back of the patrol car was hit by a train near the town of Platteville, near Denver, just after 7:30 p.m.

Rios-Gonzalez had been detained moments earlier after officers responded to what Fort Lupton police called a “high-risk vehicle stop” in a Facebook post. Edited bodycam and dashcam footage released by police shows officers approaching Rios-Gonzalez with at least one gun drawn, and ordering her to put her hands up and exit her car.

Rios-Gonzalez’s lawyer, Jonathan Stine, told NBC News Monday that his client remains in the hospital. He told the outlet she lost teeth as a result of the impact, as well as suffering a broken arm, multiple fractured ribs and other injuries to her head and legs.
