At least 115 people were killed in a train crash in northern India, after fourteen coaches of the Indore-Patna Express derailed early Sunday morning. The cause of the crash, which occurred outside the city of Kanpur, is not yet known. Sources which have reported to The Times of India said that a fracture in the track could have been to blame for the derailment. The death toll has been steadily rising throughout the day and is expected to continue growing, as police retrieve bodies from twisted coaches.
