Sarah Jones was struck and killed by a train on Feb. 20 during production on the Gregg Allman biopic Midnight Rider. The film crew was filming on live train tracks. While those on set were told that they would have about a minute to clear the tracks, after a train started down the tracks, a minute was not enough time for Sarah Jones and several others to escape.
