HUTTO - The occupant of a semitruck trailer escaped potential death Friday morning when he exited his vehicle moments before a train collided with it in Hutto.
The occupant was transported to an area hospital with injuries believed to be minor or nonlife-threatening, according to Hutto Fire Rescue officials.
While there were no fatalities, traffic near the US 79-Texas 130 junction was delayed for a few hours. The Texas 130 north exit ramp at US 79 was closed for nearly three hours as were the crossings at Star Ranch Blvd North and Park Central Drive.
