A 14-year-old girl has been killed by a train after she went to retrieve her cell phone which she dropped on the tracks.
Jenna Betti was hit by a Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway freight train in Martinez, California around 5pm on Sunday, police said.
According to the 14-year-old's mother Dena Derenale Betti, Jenna had reportedly been sitting on the tracks with her boyfriend and jumped off when the train approached.
However realizing that she had dropped her phone, she ran back for it but misjudged the distance of the freight train and was 'sucked in by its vacuum'.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
