2 Killed When Boulder Strikes Train in France's Alps

Two people were killed and nine were injured when a rock slide derailed their train, on Saturday.

A car sized boulder, followed by smaller rocks, crashed into the first car of the train, derailing the entire train.

The incident occurred in the French Alps.

Thirty-four people were aboard the train when the accident happened.

Heavy snow and the isolated location made it difficult for rescue workers to reach the accident.
