3 trains involved in derailment in western Pennsylvania
HEMPFIELD, Pa. (AP) — Officials say three trains were involved in a derailment in western Pennsylvania, prompting cancellation of rail service between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh, but no injuries were reported.
Three Norfolk Southern Corp. trains were involved in the 2:30 p.m. Friday derailment just west of the Georges Station Road bridge in Hempfield, about three miles (five kilometers) east of Greensburg.
Norfolk Southern said one westbound train struck the rear of another, and derailed cars hit part of an eastbound train. A total of 11 rail cars transporting 50 shipping containers derailed, blocking lines that carry both freight and passengers between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.
Norfolk Southern said in a statement Saturday that cranes, excavators, loaders and other heavy equipment are being used to clear the tracks, and service restoration was expected late Saturday night.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., who touts her plan-for-that policies, welcomed billionaire Michael Bloomberg to the Democratic primary with a referral to her new “calculator for billionaires.” The web tool lets users see how much some of the country’s most prominent billionaires would pay in taxes under Warren’s new tax plan. According to Warren’s calculator, the former New York City mayor would pay $3.079 billion in taxes next year.

Ivanka Trump is weighing in on the House impeachment inquiry of her father from half a world away in Morocco. President Donald Trump’s daughter and White House adviser tells The Associated Press she shares her father’s view that the impeachment investigation is about “overturning the results of the 2016 election.” But she’s less concerned about identifying the whistleblower whose complaint launched the investigation, saying Friday the ID is “not particularly relevant.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign is launching a new “Black Voices for Trump” outreach initiative. It’s dedicated to “recruiting and activating Black Americans” in support of Trump. Advisers say much of that effort will focus on highlighting ways that African Americans have benefited from the Trump economy. But critics are skeptical, given Trump’s consistently dismal approval rating with black voters. Trump and his campaign will be launching the initiative Friday.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A national security official called in to testify before House committees on the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump says a diplomat specifically mentioned that the Ukrainians would have to investigate the Bidens. Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman says in testimony that there was “no ambiguity.” He says the conversation happened during a White House meeting with Ambassador Gordon Sondland, Ukrainian officials and others. Transcript of Vindman’s testimony was released Friday.

LA MORA, Mexico (AP) — Stay or go? American residents of La Mora, Mexico are weighing what to do after nine women and children were killed in a cartel ambush. It’s too soon to say what will happen to La Mora, but locals are weighing whether it’s safe to stay. Steven Langford, who was mayor from 2015-2018, predicted that as many as half could leave, turning it into a “ghost town.” Others say there’s no way they’re leaving.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Current and former professional athletes and players’ unions have sued Pittsburgh over a tax levied on visiting pro athletes. At issue are so-called “jock taxes” typically levied on professional athletes who work for short periods of time in cities. The Pittsburgh lawsuit argues the city unfairly levies a 3% earned income tax on visiting professional athletes while taxing all other residents at 1%. Attorney Stephen Kidder says the tax violates the state and U.S. constitutions.
