Sergeant Pablo Vasquez, the officer who parked on the tracks.
The Platteville Police officer who parked his patrol on train tracks prior to it being hit by a train with a 20-year-old suspect inside says in body camera footage obtained by 9NEWS that he "thought that I had cleared the tracks."
Vasquez said, "The one good thing is the female officer put her on the wrong side, which was the saving grace because if she would have put her where the prisoners go..."

The district attorney still has not decided if there are plans to charge Rios-Gonzale, the young woman struck by the train.
