A construction crane fell onto a moving passenger train in Thailand on Wednesday, causing a fiery derailment that killed at least 32 people, including one South Korean.

Reuters reported Thursday that a crane fell from the construction site of a high-speed rail bridge on Wednesday morning onto tracks below in northeastern Thailand's Nakhon Ratchasima Province.

The crane reportedly struck a passenger train traveling from Bangkok to Ubon Ratchathani, causing the train to derail and catch fire, leaving at least 32 people dead and more than 80 injured.

A police officer told Reuters that some bodies remain inside the train cars because rescue teams withdrew after the crane began to shift, raising safety concerns.

Among the victims was a South Korean man in his late 30s. Police, along with the South Korean Embassy in Bangkok, are investigating the individual's identity and the circumstances of his boarding the train.
