Several more were injured in the incident.\n<\/p>\n The derailment remains under investigation. The number of injured passengers continues to be clarified by local authorities.\n<\/p>\n The crash occurred at Riedlingen<\/a><\/span> in Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg<\/a><\/span>, close to the city of Ulm<\/a><\/span> and the town of Biberach<\/a><\/span> near Stuttgart<\/a><\/span>.\n<\/p>\n Authorities were investigating the cause of the derailment. Several reports indicated a landslide had occurred following heavy storms in the area. One source reported local authorities believed an overflowing sewage shaft might have triggered the landslide, scattered debris onto the train tracks. Two of the train’s carriages derailed after striking the debris, climbed a sixteen-foot embankment, and came to rest after crashing into trees, according to United Press International<\/a><\/span><\/i> (UPI).\n<\/p>\n German Chancellor<\/a><\/span>, Freidrich Merz<\/a><\/span> addressed the incident on social media.
