An intoxicated 23 year old man tried to climb over a freight train that was stopped at a downtown crossing in Fargo N.D. Unfortunately for him the train started moving before he’d finished climbing over it.

The man called 911 from his cell phone when the train reached the Casselton area west of Fargo because he was cold and wanted to get off the train. The police dispatcher called the BNSF railway who then alerted the trains conductor.

“A few miles west of Casselton they were able to stop the train and (the man) got off,” Cass County Deputy Sheriff Shawn Getz said.

The man didn’t require medical attention, and the railroad didn’t press charges. However, the man was taken to a detox center.
