Man Killed by SEPTA Train at Tasker-Morris


Last night, just before 7 p.m., a man accidentally stumbled onto the tracks at the Tasker-Morris SEPTA station, at which point he was fatally struck by a northbound train. This is the latest in several recent incidents: In late January, a man fell onto the tracks at a West Philly station just a couple weeks after an apparently deranged man heaved an unsuspecting woman from the platform in Chinatown. (Both survived, in those cases.) [Fox 29]
