Their investigation found that the driver of a northbound Chevrolet Silverado disregarded a stop sign and a cargo train hit the truck as it crossed the tracks, police said. The impact knocked the truck off the road and it landed upright several hundred feet from the crossing in an easement of the railroad tracks.

The passenger, identified as Emerson Lisandro Martinez Mejia, 26, of Manassas, was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. The driver, a 42-year-old Manassas Park man, was flown to a hospital, with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.
