New York (CNN) A New Jersey Transit train plowed through a major station in Hoboken during Thursday morning's rush-hour commute, killing at least one person and injuring 75 others, some seriously, local officials said.
Witnesses said the train slammed into a bumper block, went airborne and plowed through a passenger concourse at about 8:45 a.m. at the terminal, one of the busiest transit hubs in the New York metropolitan area.
Images posted on social media showed severe structural damage at the terminal and part of the roof appeared to have collapsed.
