The driver of a car that collided with a commuter train in the San Fernando Valley fled the scene Monday morning, fire officials said.

Metrolink trains were holding north of Sylmar after a car drove into the train, Metrolink said.

The Metrolink train collided with the car at about 6:45 a.m. at 10800 San Fernando Road, the Los Angeles Fire Department said. It was carrying 220 people, but no injuries were reported.

An hour after striking the car, Metrolink cleared its train to return to continue on to Los Angeles.
