Witnesses and the train’s crew told press the incident occurred at approximately 3:45 p.m.
Wireless earbuds were found at the scene of the tragic accident, though it’s not yet clear whether they belonged to the radio staple.

Thompson previously hosted a show on Glenn Beck’s pay television network The Blaze.
