train. we are live where the accident happened. witnesses say maybe he was chasing his dog. >> reporter: well a friend of the victim i just spoke to says the man killed was walked a neighbor's dog when the dog got away from him. he ran after it to get the dog off the tracks. a vta train then struck and killed him around 9:00 last night near the baskin station close to the intersection of southwest expressway and stokes street. the friend says the victim suffered a brain injury a while back at a previous accident and may not have had the full ability to react quickly. about a couple dozen passengers were on the train. they were not hurt, but they had to be bussed to their destination. the collision caused major delays as you can imagine on the winchester line. the train was not able to stop in time. >> we are relying on the san jose police department top conduct the investigation. we as part of our normal

procedure will take the operator for testing and we will impound the train. >> reporter: the victim is the second person to die at this intersection. in january, a 14-year-old girl was hit and killed by a light rail train as she biked to school. people left candles and signs at the crossing. and back here live at this train stop, you can see that people have begun to put a candle and, beside it you can't see it, a bunch of flowers also for this victim. and the name of that man has still not been released. we should know later today the identity of the man. the dog is okay. we're told that the owner feels really bad about what happened. live in san jose, na net miranda, "today in the bay." >> thank you. now to a developing story in iraq. secretary of state john kerry arrived in iraq this morning in hopes of bringing the country back from the brink of civil war. today, kerry is meeting with the

years for charges to be filed against sandusky. she argued that her predecessor took too long and wasted time while a suspected sexual abuser remained free. one of the predecessors as i mentioned, the current governor who was at the time the attorney general in charge of the investigation. it did take months between when that first victim came forward and when charges were filed against jersey sandusky. sources familiar with the report say there was reason for prosecutors to take their time because that first witnesses testimony might not have been enough to convict the former coach. that's according to to the philadelphia inquirer. the man who was the penn stacht president and two other administrators are also awaiting trial right now on allegations they miss led or lied to the grand jury in the case. now governor tom c oorks rbit is running for a second term and the findings like lit to determine that. a lot of people were date waiting for answers. this was ordered in february of last year. >> interesting, thanks kris.

the dog off the tracks that he just didn't see or hear the oncoming winchester train which struck him around 9:00 p.m. last night near the station, close to the intersection of southwest expressway and spokes street. a candle and flower vikle has been placed here to remember the man who died. he has not been identified. the man had suffered a brain injury at a previous car accident and may have been have had the ability to react quickly. the collision caused major delays forcing passengers to use temporary buss to get to their destinations. >> traveling southbound, the winchester train, traveling southbound towards winchester and there was someone in the rite of way, and the train was not able to stop in time and struck the person. >> reporter: this is the second person killed at this intersection in six months. january, a 14-year-old girl was hit and killed by a light rail train as she biked to school. meanwhile, we're told the dog is

here we go, now my mic's on. we're going to hear aesht the report in about two hours, what we know right now is that jerry sandusky went three, four years after his first accuser came forward and we're going to find out whether the investigation to led to his conviction ultimately was delayed because of politics. so we -- there was, it was quite a big delay. we know he's serving a 30-60 year sentence for 456 counts of sexual assaulting ten boys. today's pennsylvania attorney general plans to release the comprehensive account. kathleen cain vowed during her campaign for the attorney general's office to review the case, repeatedly questioning why it took three years for charges to be filed against sandusky. she argued that her predecessors took too long and wasted time while that suspected serial abuser remained free. one of the predecessors is the

current governor, tom corbit was the attorney general at the time and was in charge of the investigation. sandusky's trial and investigator with the ag's office said that the investigation started in 2008, sandusky not arrested until 2011. but sources familiar with the report say there was reason for prosecutors to take their time. the first witnesses testimony may not have been enough to convict the former coach. that is according to to the philadelphia inquirer. the man who was the penn state president and two other administrators are awaiting trial and allegations that they miss led or lied to the grand jury in the case. governor todd corbit is running for a second term and this likely to be part of the campaign conversation. the report is coming, it was ordered in february of last year. >> so this looks back at why they didn't get to it quickly enough. this is not going to affect his prison sentence. >> no, hoost in jail for at least 30-60 years.
