More than a dozen cars derailed from a Burlington-Northern Santa Fe freight train in northern Pueblo County Friday morning. No one was injured.

It happened near the Pinon Truck Stop, at I-25 milemarker 107, east of the interstate.

Six of the 14 cars have hazardous materials plackards -- but they were empty. Haz-mat teams, sheriff's deputies and BNSF workers are at the scene.
