A collision involving a Metro E Line train and a bus in the Exposition Park area Tuesday left multiple people injured.

The crash occurred shortly before noon in the 900 block of West Exposition Boulevard, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

“Multiple train passengers are reporting minor injuries,” according to an LAFD statement. “Crews are triaging all patients and organizing care and transport.”

It was unclear if anyone was injured on the bus, which appeared to be some type of a shuttle, not a Metro transit bus.

There was no immediate word on how many people were injured or required treatment at a hospital.

According to Metro, the “train-auto incident” occurred near the Expo Park/USC Station.

“No train service between Expo/Vermont and Jefferson/USC due to train-auto incident,” Metro said in a statement on X.

Arrangements were being made for buses to accommodate rail passengers, Metro said.

A section of Exposition Boulevard was closed, and people were advised to stay away from the area, according to the USC Department of Public Safety.
