Hello

Somehow I think this was some guy from Arizona State
University who left the bar before they closed at 2:00am
in the morning. I hope he recovers, and remember what
happen to him.

This is the second such story like this the last few days.

Tempe train hits man placing coin on tracks

Tempe police say a 25-year-old man was struck
by a train as he was placing a coin on the
railroad tracks.

Police spokesman Phil Rohg says the man is
expected to survive.

He was taken to a Scottsdale hospital with a
possible skull fracture.

Rohg says the man placed a coin on the tracks
about 2 a.m. Saturday, and it fell between
the rails.

He says that when the man reached to grab it,
the train hit him.
