A train derailed into a creek Monday night in Central California, leaving nine people injured according, to KCRA-TV, an NBC affiliate in Sacramento.
Rescue crews fought the creek’s currents to pull riders from a partially submerged rail car, the Associated Press reported.
"It was dark, wet, it was raining. It was very chaotic," Alameda County Sheriff’s Sgt. Ray Kelly told the AP. "This is an absolute miracle that no one was killed, no passengers or first responders."
