Toddler found alive in rubble of China train crash

BEIJING (AP) — A toddler was rescued about 21 hours after a crash involving two high-speed trains in eastern China killed at least 35 people and injured more than 190 others, state media reported.

Xinhua News Agency said the unconscious child was found early Sunday evening while rescuers were clearing one of the train cars just as the cleanup efforts were almost completed. It cited an unnamed firefighter in its report Sunday.

The China Daily newspaper said Monday that the child was a 2-year-old girl, Xiang Weiyi, who suffered no apparent injuries after being trapped in the last carriage of the train, which had stalled and was hit 　　from behind by the second train.

The newspaper quoted the girl's uncle as saying she had been traveling with her parents and that he did not know if they had survived.
