The man “ran underneath the grade crossing gate onto the gauge of the tracks and made no attempt to move” from the approaching Port Jervis-bound train carrying 450 or so customers and crew members at Rock Road near the CVS at 6:50 p.m., NJ Transit’s Nancy Snyder told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.
Glen Rock police were first on the scene, followed by the Bergen County Police, NJ Transit police and a paramedic unit from the Valley Hospital in Ridgewood.
The Bergen County Medical Examiner’s Office made the pronouncement soon after.
NJ Transit police were investigating.
