In the dead of night, a 20-year-old cleaning lady stole a train in Saltsjobaden, outside Stockholm, Sweden, for unknown reasons. Running the train through two stations at 50 mp.h., the woman lost control of the train and it derailed, running into the first-floor kitchen of a home. The woman was taken to the hospital after the crash and luckily no residents of the house were injured. “We still dont know why she was in the driver’s seat or whether the incident was an accident” a police officer told local reporters.
