   LIVONIA, La –  A Louisiana teenager playing a game with friends   
   on train tracks was killed this weekend when some equipment   
   threw him under one of the cars.   
      
   Law enforcement officials tell The Advocate that 17-year-old   
   Brandt Torres and three friends had been placing coins on train   
   tracks to watch them be crushed early Sunday. Torres lay on the   
   ground inches from the passing cars. A ladder hanging off one of   
   the cars caught him, tossing him under the train. He was just   
   south of a Union Pacific rail yard in Livonia, and he died about   
   1:30 a.m.   
      
   Authorities say Torres nearly died two years earlier in a   
   hunting accident when he stood up in the path of a fellow duck   
   hunter. A sheriff's spokesman called his recovery "close to a   
   miracle."
