The French police are favoring the sabotage theory in the serious train accident that occurred in France yesterday evening , when a train with 180 passengers on board derailed between Caen and Rouen.

The current toll stands at 44 injured, with one woman in serious condition.

The hypothesis of a premeditated act to cause the accident emerged immediately after the incident: a photo of a long section of sectioned track resting between the rails appeared on social media . According to initial reports, the piece of metal was placed on the tracks and caused the train to derail.

The accident occurred around 7:45 PM, while the train was traveling at 140 km/h . At the time, the train was between Tourville and Elbeuf-Saint-Aubin, near the town of Cléon.
