Yup, you read that correctly.
A cleaning woman stole an empty commuter
train in a suburb of Stockholm, Sweden and crashed it into a house today,
injuring herself, local officials say.
Police arrested a woman, who was
hospitalized with serious injuries. Nobody else was hurt, and no motive for her
jacking the train has been revealed.
"We have only heard good things
about her," said Tomas Hedenius, a spokesman for train operator Arriva.
"We're investigating how this could happen."
The train inside the apartment building
hit three families but nobody was hurt.
"It's incredibly lucky that no one
in the house was injured," a police spokesman said.
Forget why ... how did she
possibly take control of a major mode of transportation?
Christer Wennerholm, a member of the
Stockholm County Council's traffic committee, said: "It shouldn't be
possible for unauthorized people to drive our trains."
Probably not.
