Commuter train hits passenger bus in Indonesia; 14 dead

A commuter train slammed into a passenger minibus Sunday at a railroad crossing in Indonesia's capital, killing at least 14 people and seriously injuring 10 others, ABC News reported on Sunday.

The bus driver allegedly ignored the warning signals when he crossed the rail tracks and was rammed by the train in western Jakarta, said Tambora neigborhood police chief Wirdhanto.

The shattered bus was seen lying on the tracks after it was dragged by the train up to a nearby platform, about 300 meters from the collision site.

Wirdhanto said that 13 people in the minibus were killed instantly and another died in a hospital.

He said none of passengers traveling in the train's eight cars were hurt, and all rail signals were working at the time of the crash. The train was headed to Jakarta's neighboring town of Bogor with about 400 passengers.
