Smithfield Pedestrian Killed

Two people are dead after a train accident in Smithfield Saturday night.

Smithfield police said Carlos Dubose, 35, of Smithfield, and Larry Allen, 34, of Smithfield, died about 11:30 p.m. when they were struck by a freight train.

The two people were standing side-by-side next to the track and did not move after the train engineer blew the horn several times to warn them, police said.

The crew couldn't stop the train before the collision, police said. Investigators said the two men were roommates.

LISTENER: are you trying to call me childish? i am a young lady. you know that a loss like this is really a tragedy but most people in this forum SHOULD be ashamed after their smartalic remark.

My prayers go out to the families, and for those of u that posted those negative comments should be ashamed of yourselves. Hopefully one day, you want have to lose a love one that way or maybe lose your life. Think about it, we do not need childish people on this forum.
