Some were thrown from the trolley and others were pinned underneath. An officer said it was unlike anything she’s seen before.

“I can tell you this. In 18 years, I’ve never seen an accident like that. Like that way. I’ve never seen that. He must have just hit it absolutely. Just hit it absolutely perfectly for that to happen. It’s crazy,” she said.
