Philadelphia Mayor Michel Nutter says all passengers and crew members have been accounted for two days after the deadly Amtrak crash.
Nutter said at a news conference that an eighth body was found in the wreckage Thursday morning. The mayor says that means all 243 people on board have now been accounted for.
Nutter says city officials will not identify any of the victims. Only six of the eight who died have been identified by authorities or friends and family.
The train flew off the tracks Tuesday night as it was traveling at 106 mph, more than twice the speed limit on that section of track.
A Philadelphia Fire Department official says an eighth body has been found in the wreckage of the Amtrak train that jumped the rails Tuesday night.
Fire Commissioner Derrick Sawyer says a search dog found the body Thursday morning in the mangled first car.
The victim has not been identified; only six of the victims have been identified by authorities or friends and family.
Federal investigators have determined the train was going 106 mph before it derailed Tuesday along a sharp curve where the speed limit drops to 50 mph. But they don’t know why it was going so fast.
More than 200 people were injured.
