An Amtrak conductor called 911 early Monday morning asking for help with a domestic dispute on board.
The conductor said a female had struck a man and during the 911 call he had to break up another altercation.
A Marion County Sheriff’s Deputy boarded the train at the 1st Street crossing in Kinmundy where the female was removed. She was taken to a Salem motel to spend the night.
The man and his 11-year-old son were allowed to continue onboard the train.
Sheriff’s officials say no arrests were made.
The man, woman, and 11-year-old were all from New York State.
