An 11-year-old Florida girl was killed by an Amtrak train that struck her as she was walking home from a restaurant.
The train's conductor told investigators Yazmin White was looking down at her phone as she crossed the tracks Wednesday afternoon and gave no indication she was aware the train was approaching.
The train, which had 12 passenger cars and two engines, was going about 68 miles per hour when it hit the girl.
Investigators with the Polk County Sheriff's Office say the conductor told them he repeatedly sounded the horn and applied the brakes but couldn't avoid the child.
The release said evidence at the scene indicated the girl was wearing headphones when the train hit her.
