The passengers in the car were injured, including one child, and were taken to a nearby hospital, according to ABC7News.

The four-door sedan was on the tracks when it was struck.

According to local reports, at least two bodies were discovered on a gravel embankment about 25 feet from the vehicle.

The cause of the crash is being investigated, but the location is well-known for its potential hazards, with first responders responding to calls at least once or twice a year because the crossing lacks a traffic guard.

The company stated that it was investigating the incident with local law enforcement and BNSF Railway, the track owner.
