Police: Man who wanted picture gets 'train rash'

FARGO, N.D. - Police say a man who wanted his picture taken next to a moving train suffered "train rash" but no serious injuries when he got too close to the train.

Police Sgt. Jeff Skuza said the 34-year-old man and two friends were in Fargo for a conference. He said they went around the security gates at a train crossing so he could have his picture taken.

Skuza said the man thought the picture would be better if he got closer to the train. But he stumbled and the train caught his back, ripping his shirt and pants. Skuza called it "a bad case of train rash." He also said alcohol was a factor.

Police did not release the man's name. Skuza said he was treated and released from an area hospital.

Another story showing that trains and alcohol don't mix well...

Somehow, I don't think that the opening line of "My clothes? A train ripped them off" is going to work very well. Ladies, any thoughts on that?
