A cargo train derailed and exploded after crashing into a commercial truck just outside Baltimore this afternoon, sending a tower of flames and black smoke into the sky. The truck’s driver was seriously injured, but no other injuries have been reported. One worker in the area said it felt “like an earthquake.” Multiple buildings nearby were damaged, and authorities told residents to evacuate if they felt unsafe. Videos show at least five train cars derailed, but the cause of the accident is not yet known.
