Dog Walk Turns Deadly near Edmonds

Early Sunday evening, KING5-TV reports, two women had taken four dogs out for a walk near the train tracks (not to be confused with light rail track) just outside of Seattle, when one dog ran off and onto the train tracks just as a Chicago-bound Amtrak train was approaching. Moments later, the eastbound train struck and killed the dog and injured one of the women who raced after it. The injured woman was brought onboard the train and taken to the Edmonds Station, where paramedics whisked her away to Harborview.

Yes, that's why leash laws exist. Because of trains.
