Toddler hit by train

Hopefully this will be the last little kid hit by train story this month. What a horrific way for a child to die.

The tracks running through part of West Chicago are next to a large unfenced, empty field. That’s where 3-year-old Adriana Chew had been playing with her 8-year-old sister, just east of the railroad tracks.

When they headed for home, they crossed the tracks into the path of an oncoming southbound EJ&E freight train. Her sister made it across, Adriana did not.

Family members rushed to the injured girl.

“They all went over there and apparently she was trying to get up, and she just said I love you and that was it,” said family friend Rita Schauer.
