Two fatalities are a result of a collision between a train and a car near the Holts Corner Market at about 9:20 a.m. Saturday, according to three law enforcement agencies.
It was "one car versus the train at a private crossing," Chapel Hill Police Chief Jackie King said by cell phone from the scene. The Marshall County Sheriff's Department confirmed that two people died as a result of the collision.

Names of the deceased were withheld pending notification of next of kin.

Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper James Crump responded to the call received by his dispatcher at 9:23 a.m., THP Dispatcher Jennifer Curtis said, confirming information from a Tribune news source. The Chapel Hill Fire Department also responded, the news source said.

Sheriff's Deputy Keith Jolley is assisting Crump, as are King and Chapel Hill Police Patrolman Chris Cook, the sheriff's spokesman said.

An Air Evac Helicopter ambulance responded as well as an investigator for CSX.

My prayers are with my friend/friends family at this time. PLEASE mockers if you pray, pray for Christy. She has lost her mother and 10 y/o son. I went to school with Christy. This accident was only 2 miles from my residence.

May you both rest in god's arms now!
