Metro Transit officials say the semi took an illegal turn from Raymond Avenue onto University Avenue, and then struck an eastbound METRO Green Line train just before 6 p.m. No one was hurt.
Trains were unable to run between the Raymond and Westgate stations for about 30 minutes in the crash’s aftermath. That stretch was reopened at about 6:30 p.m.
