Authorities say one person was hospitalized after a crash involving a motorhome and a train on Woodland Avenue and W. 4th Street in Reno.
Union Pacific says the train was heading east, just before noon, when it hit a motorhome.
Emergency crews cut the driver out of the RV. The driver was transported to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
"Our initial engine and the squad, they were able to remove the patient, who appears to be the only occupant in the vehicle, and get that patient transported to the hospital,” says Reno Fire Department Battalion Chief Robert Casos.
Reno Police are investigating the crash as a suicide attempt.
UP had said that the line would be shut down for several hours, but it reopened around 3:45 p.m.
"Just because we have an accident or something happening on one train track, the other track is still open for business. People need to stay off of the tracks, we've had multiple people try to cross over the tracks and it's just not safe to do," says Casos.
