Woman Fights to Bring Son’s Body Home

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): A woman is struggling to raise money to bring home the body of her teenage son killed by a train in Ohio. Ka Te Za lost her 13-year-old son, Hu Sein, Sunday when he was struck by a train while sleeping on tracks in Ohio. The boy and two friends ran away from their Fort Wayne neighborhood Sunday morning. They hopped a freight train and rode it into Ohio, then decided to start walking home. Hu Sein became tired and fell asleep on the tracks. The family is working on getting the remains back to Fort Wayne, and the Burmese Advocacy Center is helping with fundraising.
