Close call...
Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) narrowly avoided getting hit by a train Friday during a press conference about why it’s important to be careful around trains.
He was standing on the platform of a Metro-North station in Milford, CT., while the town’s mayor, Ben Blake, spoke about commuter safety.
“We have about 5,000 customers taking the trains each and every day. Safety, as you know, is paramount,” Blake said, just as a train whizzed by. It nearly took out the senator, who was standing close to the edge of the platform.
