South Africa Commuter Trains Collide Near Pretoria
At least 300 people, including many school children, have been injured when two passenger trains collided near the South African capital, Pretoria. Medical workers say 28 people were seriously hurt.
The theft of copper cables used for signalling, compounded by human error, caused the crash, said the head of South Africa's rail authority.
The early morning accident happened when a train crashed into a stationary train near Attridgeville, a township west of Pretoria.
