One person was killed and a second person injured after they were struck by a train in Vail Saturday afternoon.
The Pima County Sheriff's Department was notified shortly after 2 p.m. that two pedestrians had been hit by a train in the area of Marsh Station Road and I-10, said department spokesman, Deputy Ryan Inglett.
A male in his late-teens to early-20s was pronounced deceased at the scene and the second victim, a young woman in her late-teens to early-20s, was transported to Banner-University Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries, said Sgt. Costaki Manoleas.
Witnesses told deputies that the victims were on the elevated trestle bridge when the train approached and weren't able to get out of the way in time, Manoleas said.
