A car crashed into a Metro Rail train Friday afternoon at Main and Pierce in downtown Houston.

Two women, one pushing the other in a wheelchair, nearly became victims too.

"We were right here, right here. I looked over and just saw his truck flying in the middle of the street," said Heather MacQueen.

"Then that hit and stuff was flying everywhere," said Debra Johnson, who was pushing MacQueen's wheelchair. "If that pole hadn't been there he would have hit us."

The women were hit by debris, but not seriously hurt.

The driver of the car was taken to the hospital.

There were 90 people aboard the train but none of them was hurt.
