2/17/14 - Two men were killed in a collision between their truck and a train in Argentine Township this weekend. The men, identified as 31-year-old Robert Bosch of Gaines and 67-year-old Theodore Pudvay of Argentine Township, were traveling north on a private road near Seymour Road just after 3:00pm on Saturday when their vehicle was struck by a train. Argentine Township Police Chief Dan Allen told The Tri-County Times that Pudvay was driving a black 2003 Chevy pickup truck when he crossed over a private crossing on his property on Lahring Road. It was then struck on the passenger side by a westbound train. Allen said the train dragged the truck between one-quarter and one-half mile down the tracks. The cause of the crash is being investigated by police and the railroad company, but Argentine Police say they do not know if the driver was able to see the train coming. (JK)
