At least 1 person is confirmed dead and 2 remain in critical condition as "approximately 100" other passengers were injured after a New Jersey Transit commuter train derailed and crashed into the Hoboken Station this morning around 8:45AM.  The train reportedly did not slow down as it approached the end of line in Hoboken causing it to jump tracks and crash into the station.

The terminal reportedly sustained major structural damage as initial images from the station indicate that a section of the roof collpased leaving passengers trapped under debris.

New Jersey Transit confirmed the incident involved train number 1614 on the Pascack Valley Line, which left Spring Valley, N.J. at 7:23 a.m. bound for Hoboken and apparently was running late.

The train had about five or six carriages and was not full because many passengers exit at Secaucus. 

The cause of the accident was not immediately clear but NTSB officials are on the scene conducting an investigation.
