DOWNERS GROVE, Ill. (WGN) — A person is dead after they were hit by a train in Downers Grove early Sunday morning, according to the Downers Grove Police Department (DGPD).

DGPD said officers responded to the area of Washington Street and the BNSF Railroad Tracks around 12:45 a.m. on a report that a person was hit by a train near there.

DGPD’s preliminary investigation showed that a person was seen on foot south of the railroad crossing while the gates were activated and in the down position. Police said the person then walked northbound across the tracks and was hit by a westbound freight train.

The person was pronounced dead on the scene.
