CTA Red Line trains are suspended between the Howard and Addison stations on the North Side for a person who was hit by a train at the Bryn Mawr stop.
The CTA announced the initial delay about 1:35 p.m. Sunday, citing a “medical emergency on the tracks.” The suspension of service was announced at 2 p.m.
A Chicago Fire Department spokesman confirmed that a person was hit by a train and said that recovery efforts are underway. The person was pronounced dead on the scene.
