Person Hit, Killed By Train At 125th Street

HARLEM, NY — A person was struck and killed by a train at a Harlem subway station Thursday afternoon, police said.

It happened around 12:40 p.m. at the 125th Street-Lenox Avenue station on the 2-3 line. The unidentified victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police had few immediate details, but said the person may have jumped in front of the subway. It came about a month after a man was hit by a train at the same station, while another man was fatally struck there in August.

Uptown 2 and 3 trains were terminating at 96th Street after the accident, the MTA said at 1 p.m., adding that commuters could take the B, C, or M7 and M02 buses instead.
