Firefighters investigate an early morning fire at the Mariner's Cove Hotel in Point Pleasant Beach, N.J. on Friday, March 21, 2014. An early morning fire killed three people at the Jersey shore motel whose residents included Superstorm Sandy victims who were staying there because their homes remain uninhabitable nearly a year and a half after the storm, officials said. Three other people were critically injured in the blaze. Authorities said several other people may be unaccounted for. Investigators are interviewing motel management to determine how many people were staying there when the fire broke out. The motel's office was destroyed and most records were lost.

Emergency crews investigate the scene of an accident on U.S. 131 south of U.S. 12 in White Pigeon, Mich., on Thursday, March 20, 2014. Officials say a 77-year-old driver of a semi-truck from Illinois has died in a collision with a slow-moving freight train. The driver is identified as Bobby Abell, of Quincy. The St. Joseph County sheriff's department says the crash around 5 p.m. Thursday near White Pigeon caused at least one car on the train to derail and tip, blocking traffic in the area. Witnesses told investigators that the semi-truck driven by Abell didn't appear to slow down prior to the collision with the train. An engineer on the train had what were described as minor injuries.
