UK police probe cause of train collision that killed driver and left 9 in critical condition

LONDON (AP) — Nine people were in critical condition on Saturday after a collision between two passenger trains in central England the night before killed the driver of one of the locomotives, police said.

British Transport Police Chief Constable Lucy D'Orsi said more than 80 people were treated in hospitals after the crash late Friday afternoon, and 28 remained hospitalized a day later.

Buckingham Palace said King Charles III "is greatly saddened" by the crash. It said "his thoughts and sympathies are with the family of the deceased and with all those injured or affected by such a tragic incident."
