Police Find Three Bodies At West Side Rail Crossing

Columbus police say the bodies of three people were found this morning near railroad tracks on Trabue Road near McKinely Avenue. 

A 911 caller found the bodies of one person on the ground and two others inside a car sitting on the tracks. It's not clear how they died. No trains were on the track when the car was found. Large amounts of money were seen on the ground and blowing through the air.

 
 
***Update: Columbus police this afternoon identified the three people as 35-year-old Ryan Riley, 35-year-old Johnny Collins and 58-year-old Glenn Featherston Jr.  
 
Police say they were ejected from their vehicle after it rolled over several times. Authorities say the three were not wearing seatbelts. They say a train was not involved in the accident. The investigation continues.
