Surveillance video both onboard and outside show the second car of a two-car train lurch off the tracks as it switches from one track to another. The onboard angle shows passengers flying about the car, including a baby in a stroller.
An airport spokesman told CBS Miami that the accident was caused by a guide wheel falling off the train.
Ten other passengers did not report injuries.
