PASS CHRISTIAN, MS (WLOX) - A Pass Christian High School student is dead after a train struck her car. Early this morning, 17-year-old Dariane Cameron was killed when a train struck her car. It happened on St. Paul Avenue at the railroad tracks in Pass Christian.

Harrison County Coroner Gary Hargrove said Cameron was attempting to cross the tracks in her SUV when her vehicle was struck by the train.
