An RTD train struck and killed a pedestrian Sunday morning, according to Denver police.
The crash happened on the A Line at about 11 a.m. at a crossing between Smith Road and North Monaco Street Parkway, according to police. The A Line, which runs between downtown Denver and Denver International Airport, was shut down between Union Station and Peoria Station and passengers were shuttled around the closure on buses until 3:15 p.m., when train service resumed.
Laurie Huff, spokeswoman for RTD, said the bus shuttles ended at 3:15 p.m. and that the A Line should be back to its normal schedule by about 4:30 p.m. Sunday. She declined to comment on the specifics of the incident.
Denver police also did not offer any details about how the pedestrian was struck, though spokesman Kurt Barnes said the collision happened at a crossing.
Denver police are conducting a death investigation.
