At least 21 people have been hurt - two of them badly - after a Los Angeles train struck a car. The silver car was left unrecognizable after it tried to cross the tracks and ended up in the path of the train just before 11am on Saturday. 

Fire department spokesman Shawn Lenske said two of the train's three carriages derailed just metres from the University of Southern California campus.

One person on the train suffered serious injuries and a person pulled from the car is in a critical condition, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. Nineteen others suffered light injuries and many were treated on the ground in front of the city's Natural History Museum.

They have not revealed why the car was crossing the tracks.

The crash comes just a month after 50 people were hurt and an engineer killed after a Los Angeles train struck a truck. Three weeks before that, six people were killed when a train struck a car and derailed at a crossing in New York city.
