Cyclist Struck and Killed Near Brentwood Mall http://www.theprovince.com/news/Cycl...669/story.html Quote:
This is very sad news. RIP to the cyclist. I was heading home from work on lougheed and you could see the body lying on beta ave beside brentwood mall. Blood was actually seeping down the hill onto the highway. |
Was just about to post this. I saw the cyclist under a tarp and knew they died at the scene. Based on where they were I just can't see how the story at The Province and Global jives. They claim the cyclist was crossing Lougheed, but they ended up halfway up Beta on the steep hill. I just don't see how the cyclist could have gone that far, especially since their bike was right beside them. Unless they were dragged, which still seems odd to anyone who drives there. Beta is pretty steep and people just don't drive that fast when crossing Lougheed going uphill. Then around 6:00pm I'm driving by the Brentwood Skytrain station and there's a bunch of ambulances and cops there along with camera crews, and the station is locked down with a train being held inside on the west bound track. Don't know if someone was struck by the train or something happened on the train itself. WTF is going on at Brentwood today? |
^ Heard somebody jumped in front of it, not sure if purposefully or not |
Major delays on Skytrain's Millennium Line | (CKNW AM) AM980 there was a medical issue with a passenger on the train |

That's why there are no passengers on the trains passing through the station and they board/re-board at stations on either side and take a temporary shuttle bus instead. |
good point. Seems like a lot of suicide's/attempts have been happening already. The bridges, and the skytrains |
from the ScanBC twitter re: the medical emergency: ScanBC @ScanBC 6h #Burnaby crews are on scene at Brentwood Skytrain Station after someone was hit by a train. Trains stopped in both directions. It's possible someone could have fallen, it happened last year at Broadway when someone was bumped into the track area |
