    Four train cars derailed near Ninth Street in Lafayette which resulted in the temporary closing of the Harrison Bridge early on Saturday afternoon.

    Two of the four derailed train cars had hazardous materials, but there were no leaks, Lafayette police say. Authorities are still looking into the cause of the derailment.

    For about 12 hours, traffic was closed in both directions of the road. Harrison Street Bridge has since opened for traffic between Lafayette and West Lafayette but the Southbound Canal Road will remain closed as cleanup continues.
