Train traffic was completely interrupted Thursday morning, from 7:15 a.m., between Ottignies and Brussels.
The Walloon Brabant public prosecutor’s office was notified at 8:50 a.m. of an unusual incident. An agitated user grabbed the hammer that is usually used to break a window in the event of a serious incident. The man broke the window and threw himself onto the tracks.
The driver of another line train, which was traveling in the opposite direction, saw a body lying on the ballast, along the tracks near Rixensart.
Railway police and a forensic doctor attended the scene.
Investigations intended to identify the deceased were still underway late Thursday morning.
Train circulation was restored around 11:30 a.m. between Ottignies and Brussels.
