Dozens of emergency record- ings released Wednesday by South Sound 911 Dispatch provided a vivid account of what happened during the deadly Dec. 18 crash. “My abdomen hurts really bad. I don’t feel good,” said a crying woman identified as Angela who was bleeding from her head and wailed in panic each time she couldn’t find an answer to a dispatcher’s questions. “I don’t know how old I am off the top of my head. I’m sorry!” Angela was in Car 5 with her 14-year-old son as the passenger train barreled through a curve at 78 mph in a 30 mph zone, derailing along both sides of the tracks and toppling some cars onto Interstate 5 below. Angela begged for help and ordered her bleeding son to lie still because he had neck and back pain. He took a hit to his face. They got slammed into a table. She couldn’t find her shoes. “Everybody’s getting off but I’m Daniella Fenelon via AP, File In this Dec. 18 file photo provided by Daniella Fenelon, first responders work at the scene of an Am- trak train that derailed in DuPont, Wash. Dozens of 911 call recordings released by South Sound 911 Dispatch provide a vivid account of the Dec. 18 wreck from survivors and witnesses. Authorities say it could take more than a year to understand how the train carrying 85 passengers and crew members could have ended in disaster. afraid to move my son,” Angela said, adding that “tons of people are hurt!” Authorities say it could take more than a year to understand how the inaugural run of the train carrying 85 passengers and crew members ended in disaster along a new 15-mile bypass route. Friends Jim Hamre, 61, and Zack Willhoite, 35, died of brain and skull injuries. Benjamin Gran, 40, died of multiple traumatic injuries. Another 911 caller said there were bodies everywhere. A dispatcher said there were at least 12 bodies on the tracks. One man called seeking infor- mation about his wife after learning she hit her head while on the train. He said he was driving to the scene, but the dispatcher urged him to avoid the area so he didn’t get stuck on the road. The man replied: “I’m not going to be able to not (go). He added: “I apologize for being a bit of a mess and in a panic.” On the ground, a woman iden- tified as Aura MacArthur said she was driving south on Interstate 5 and thought her car had been hit by a mudslide. “A huge cloud of mud and dirt came and hit my car and spun me around,” she said, cold and crying in her glass-strewn SUV. “I am the only car besides a semi that made it through the train derail- ment. I was right at the front when it came,” she said, at times gasping for air and weeping. “My chest is sore but my airbag’s deployed ... I can’t go anywhere,” she said. She said it was dark and no vehicles could pass because the interstate was blocked by the train wreckage. “I hope everybody’s OK,” she said. Seaside rope and rescue team recovers dog stranded on cliff By BRENNA VISSER EO Media Group In a dramatic rescue, a dog stranded overnight on a cliff along the Oregon Coast was brought to safety Tuesday morning. Felix, a 2-year-old border collie, was rescued unharmed from a precipice north of Indian Beach by the Seaside rope and rescue team. He had gone missing around 3 p.m. Monday during a Christmas day hike. “He doesn’t just leave, it’s not like how he is,” said Sarah Stremming, Felix’s owner. “He does like water, so I figured he went over the cliff. He would have come back to me when I called if he hadn’t.” For the rest of the evening, Seattle resident Stremming and a group of friends searched the cliffside to no avail. “We thought we knew where he was, we just couldn’t see him and he couldn’t hear us due to the tides,” she said. Stremming posted a call to action on her Facebook page Monday in an effort to reach out to what she called “an extensive network of dog lovers.” By Tuesday morning, Cannon Beach Fire Chief (and former Pendleton fire marshal) Matt Benedict had a flood of messages waiting from Stremming’s Colin Murphey/Daily Astorian In this Tuesday photo, Sarah Stremming, left, is reunited with her dog, Felix, after he was rescued from a precipice north of Indian Beach in Ecola State Park in Cannon Beach. Felix was rescued unharmed from a precipice by a Seaside rope and rescue team. concerned friends. Shortly after 8 a.m., Hamlet Fire Chief Matt Verley used his private drone to locate Felix. It was deter- mined the only way to reach him was by scaling the cliff face with ropes. Search and rescue missions aren’t uncommon in and around Ecola State Park. On average, the rope and rescue team retrieves about six to 12 hikers each year, Benedict said. But most happen in the summer, and this was the first high-angle rescue this year, Benedict said — a type of rescue that is steeper and requires more climbing than usual.

At one point he slipped out of his harness, and I was basi- cally bear hugging him, with no available hand holds.” About three hours later, Felix was greeted by a warm blanket, a visibly emotional owner and group of friends anxiously awaiting his arrival. “He’s everything,” Stremming said, clutching Felix in her arms. 2:50 5 PM 5:50 4 PM 4:50 5 PM 5:50 Last Last Man St. Man St. News (N) News News (N) (N) News News News News (N) (N) News News News News (N) (N) News News Biz Kid$ Business (N) Odd Wild Squad Kratts 5 PM 5:50 6 PM 6:50 7 PM 7:50 8 PM 8:50 9 PM 9:50 10 PM 10:50 11 PM 11:50 Modern Modern Family Family News (N) News Inside (N) Edition News News News Family (N) Feud KGW News (N) News News (N) (N) KATU News (N) PBS NewsHour (N) 2 Broke 2 Broke Apple Music's Can't Stop Won't First at :35 Dateline :35 Mike Girls Girls Stop: A Bad Boy Story (N) Ten (N) & Molly Feud Feud A Bad Boy Story (N) News (N) News Page Six The Big TheSi- The Big Young The Big Mom S.W.A.T.
