SAPULPA, Okla. - An early morning train through Green Country uncovered a man with a leg injury near the railroad tracks in Sapulpa.

Joe Faust, spokesman for BNSF Railway, said the man was found near the tracks with a non-life threatening wound to the leg.

Faust said the man was "highly intoxicated" and they're unsure how the injury occurred.

Faust said it's possible the man was wounded by the train or another one that passed through the area earlier.

The incident is under investigation.
