From Global:
A child has been hit along a C-Train platform in downtown Calgary.
It happened shortly after noon on the downtown LRT platform on 7th Avenue between 2nd and 3rd street southwest. Police have closed down the platform.
Witnesses say the child has died.
“There’s no way he’s more than three, he’s small. It’s very evident that it was fatal. He wasn’t moving. We sat there for maybe 4 minutes; there were no police, no nothing yet. We tried to block people from coming any closer” says Stephanie Rich, a witness of the incident.
The status of the child has not yet been confirmed.
Police will be updating the situation early this afternoon.
