A Tri-Rail commuter train crashed into a car in Opa Locka, Florida, on Tuesday afternoon, injuring several people.

“The train hit one car, then that car hit another car, and there was a chain reaction,” said Tri-Rail spokeswoman, Bonnie Arnold, according to the Miami Herald.

The accident involved five cars. It took place at around 3:40 p.m., Arnold said.

Arnold said the injuries of the victims are minor. No injuries were reported on the train, WSVN reported.

It’s not clear if anyone was taken to the hospital.

“The tracks have reopened and we don’t anticipate significant delays,” Arnold said.
