A Salt Lake man was seriously injured Wednesday when he became tangled between two boxcars after trying to cross a moving train.
David P. Rodriquez, 35, was attempting to step across the cars' coupling system near 1200 North and 600 West about 11:15 p.m. when he slipped and became trapped."There were a couple of people who witnessed what was going on, and they said he was caught in the train for about a mile," said a Salt Lake police spokesman.
Rodriquez was taken to LDS Hospital in critical condition but was upgraded to serious condition by Friday morning.
