The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and Union Pacific Railroad officials are at the scene of an accident on U.S. 90 in the area of China, where a train struck a loaded  18-wheeler. There is one reported death from the crash and the wreck happened at about 8 a.m. as the 18-wheeler with three construction workers were headed to a job site. The truck's trailer got stuck on the tracks, and two men tried to free the trailer while the third remained in the truck. The train struck the truck, killing one of the men outside the truck. The man inside the truck was taken by medical helicopter to Christus St. Elizabeth Hospital and is currently in critical condition. The third man was not injured.  Attempts to avoid debris in the road by passing vehicles resulted in a second wreck with two other vehicles. There were no injuries from that wreck.    Dave Ryan/The Enterprise
