A woman is dead and a child and man are injured after their car collided with two MTA Maryland Light Rail trains in downtown Baltimore, officials said Thursday morning.

Officials said at around 7:30 a.m. two Light Rail trains were coming at opposite directions when a car driving eastbound on Mulberry Street collided with the Light Rails.
Okay, say it. OUCH.

Photos of the aftermath are up on these Reddit threads (post-extraction of victims) :

I can't say "squish." I have to say "OUCH" and say it's a miracle that the man and child got out with minor injuries.
