BOSTON (FOX25, myfoxboston) - An MBTA spokesman says there were no reports of injuries after a subway trolley rear-ended another trolley at low speed. SKYFOX was over the scene.

Agency spokesman Joe Pesaturo says a Green Line car moving eastbound tapped a stationary trolley in the Boylston station at about 9 a.m. on Tuesday. One of the trolleys had some minor damage.

He says there is nothing to indicate any problems with signals or equipment and the driver of the second trolley has indicated she was at fault. He says no cellphones or handheld electronic devices were involved.

Four MBTA employees on the two trolleys have been taken out of service and will undergo drug and alcohol testing as is routine after such incidents.

The accident remains under investigation.
