KC-MO Fire reports a dump truck has been crushed by a train near downtown Kansas City-MO..
The accident occurred just after 2:30 pm this afternoon "behind Tension Envelope" Company in the 800 block of East 19th Street or closer to 21st Street and Campbell.
There's no report on the condition of the dump truck's driver yet.
-----
UPDATE - 1515 CDT - The driver of the dump truck was going to a Metro medical trauma center.
It's reported the driver "was just getting ready to jump out of the truck when the train struck" the vehicle.
The MAST-EMS paramedic didn't describe any life-threatening injuries and it sounds that driver will live with the embarrassment.

Embarrassment?? He was working on a track that was supposed to be cleared for the work. A train was sent down the track because of a miscommunication.
