Pedestrian Struck, Killed By MARC Train In Elkridge

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- A pedestrian was struck and killed by a MARC train early Friday.

Investigators believe he was walking along the tracks alone when he was struck. No one on-board the train was injured. It is unknown why the pedestrian was walking in the area.

Detectives are working to determine the pedestrian's identity and notify his next of kin, but he was carrying no wallet or identification. Police say he appears to be an Asian man.
