A man throws himself under a train, rail traffic interrupted between La Louvière-Sud and Mons

These are dramatic facts. This Saturday morning, a little after 9:30 a.m., a man threw himself off the platform at Havré station as a train arrived. The Mons-Quévy police, an ambulance and the SMUR were dispatched to the scene but the victim died instantly.

Rail traffic is therefore interrupted between the stations of La Louvière-Sud and Mons, indicates a spokesperson for the manager of the Infrabel network. Replacement buses provide the link pending the resumption of traffic

Impossible at the time of writing these lines to give more details about this recovery. The prosecution is indeed expected on the scene.
