A Canadian man, Michael Hughes was trying to save his beloved dog (a female labrador) from being run over by a train. In his effort to prevent his dog from being killed by the train, Michael tried to grab his pooch who was standing on the train tracks. Michael was knocked into a creek alongside the train tracks. His body has not been recovered.
Even though Michael tried to save his dog, it was injured in the collision and found under a train car. The dog was later euthanized.
