B.C. police issue warning after people crawl under stopped train
Children are seen crawling underneath a stopped train near the White Rock Pier on Wednesday, Aug. 13. (Credit: Cathy Lee Shum/Facebook) Mounties in White Rock, B.C., issued a warning to the public after some concerning behaviour around a stalled train earlier this week. In a statement, the White Rock RCMP said officers responded to a train blocking the crossing near the pier head around 7:15 p.m. Wednesday. While the train was stopped, police say some pedestrians, including parents with children, crawled under it or walked along the tracks rather than use the Balsam Street crossing. 'This is extremely dangerous. A stopped train can move without warning, and anyone underneath or on the tracks is at serious risk of injury or death,' the statement reads. Mounties got everyone off the tracks and stayed on site to prevent more people from crossing until the train was back moving about an hour later, according to the detachment. 'Never crawl under a train, enter the tracks against crossing signals, or walk on/along tracks at undesignated crossings,' detachment commander Staff Sgt. Rob Dixon said, in the statement. 'It's illegal and your safety is not worth the shortcut.'
