A 50-car Union Pacific train derailed Saturday afternoon in Minnesota, leaving dozens of cars piled up in a lakeside wreckage.

The Albert Lea Police Department said in a statement that no one was injured in the derailment. The statement added that a Hazmat team was on scene "to assist with material load containment," and that there was "nothing airborne at this time."

Aerial footage from the local news station WCCO showed what appeared to be dozens of derailed train cars piled up on top of one another and partially submerged in water.

A Union Pacific spokesperson told Insider in a statement that the derailment affected roughly 28 of the train's cars. Though the company was "working to identify what is in the derailed cars," the spokesperson said the train was carrying mixed commodities.
