LOS ANGELES (Sept. 19) - A light rail train slammed into a bus near downtown during Friday morning's commute, injuring at least 13 people, fire officials said.
The Metro Blue Line train was headed to Long Beach carrying passengers while the bus was out of service. As many as two dozen people were hurt, but none of the injuries appeared to be life-threatening, Fire Department spokesman Brian Humphrey said.
