Teen struck and killed by GO Train (Emergency crews were on the scene at the St. John's and Industrial Railway crossing as the train began moving again just after 8.30 a.m. Auroran photo by Brock Weir) By Brock Weir A male teen is dead after being struck by a GO Train in the north end of Aurora on Tuesday morning. He was hit on the tracks by a southbound train on the Barrie-Toronto line during the early morning commute just north of the St. John's Sideroad rail crossing, just west of Industrial Parkway North. York Regional Police were called to the scene at 6.15 a.m., according to Constable Andy Pattenden, and the preliminary investigation concluded around 9 a.m. “It looks like he was an older teenage male,” said Sergeant Clint Whitney. “There are no suspicious circumstances or any criminality that has come to light.” The incident created several problems for early-morning commuters the length of the corridor. People heading south on the GO were stranded on the train as all movement was halted on the Barrie line pending the investigation until just after 8.30 a.m. St. John's Sideroad was also closed to traffic heading east from Yonge Street while westbound traffic created further congestion on Industrial Parkway. |
