Days after a Brightline train smashed into a Delray Beach Fire Rescue engine on the tracks in downtown Delray Beach, several questions remain unanswered about the circumstances of the crash.
What happened will be “a turning point — a moment from which we will learn and grow,” Delray Beach Fire Chief Ronald Martin said in a statement shared on social media Tuesday afternoon.
He said the department is “committed to working diligently to implement improvements to prevent future incidents.”
Three firefighters and 12 Brightline passengers were hospitalized after the crash, which happened near the intersection of the intersection of East Atlantic Avenue and Railroad Avenue about 10:45 a.m.
Here’s the latest installment of our Miami Dolphins Q&A, where South Florida Sun Sentinel writers David Furones and Chris Perkins answer questions from readers.
Q: Instead of thinking of ways to keep a slow, weak-armed qb healthy… why not just get a new qb? Just a thought. Lol. — Richard Thompson on Dolphins Deep Dive w/Perk
The Dolphins (8-8) are financially married to quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (and wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, and cornerback Jalen Ramsey).
RALEIGH, N. C. — A year ago this past Sunday, Florida State’s Board of Trustees sued the ACC in an effort to find a way out of the conference’s Grant of Rights agreement — and a way out of the conference, period.

And so began the least romantic and longest slow dance that has played out in major college athletics during the past year: the contemptuous tango between the Seminoles and the league they’ve called home since July 1, 1991.
If someone fell into a deep and extended slumber a year ago and awoke Monday with a yearning to know the latest, and whether FSU had found its way out of the ACC or if a judge (or two) had concluded the school’s case to be meritless, the easiest way to answer would be to say:
“You haven’t missed much.”
At least nothing major.
In this Dolphins Deep Dive video, the South Florida Sun Sentinel’s Chris Perkins and David Furones discuss if Miami (8-8) can continue to win against bad teams like the New York Jets (4-12) and sneak into the playoffs with help from the Kansas City Chiefs beating the Denver Broncos.
