1 Person Dead After Being Struck by MBTA Commuter Rail Train in Boston

  • Early Monday morning near 5:30 a.m., a man was killed after being hit by a commuter rail train operated by the MBTA in the West Roxbury area of Boston, close to 450 Lagrange Street.
  • The man intentionally entered the right of way, and foul play is not suspected, while homicide detectives and the Suffolk District Attorney's Office began investigating.
  • Police closed the right of way for investigation, causing Needham Line Train 602 to terminate near West Roxbury and cancelling Train 608, disrupting service on the Needham Line.
  • The MBTA recommended passengers take Train 614 on the Needham Line, which starts at Forest Hills and travels to South Station, or use the Orange Line from Forest Hills. Meanwhile, shuttle buses operated along the route until approximately 9:22 a.m., as Transit Police expressed their sympathies to the victim’s family.
  • The incident highlights ongoing operational impacts and investigations in Boston’s West Roxbury area, with no further details released as of Monday morning.
