A woman in her 60s walked into the path of an Amtrak train and was killed Friday morning in Northridge, authorities said.

The woman’s identification is pending family notification and she was pronounced dead at 10:15 a.m. on the 8800 block of Tampa Avenue, said Ed Winter of the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner.

She was walking with a couple of people and “as the train came she jumped in front of it,” Winter added.

The apparent suicide by train was reported shortly after 10 a.m. at Tampa Avenue and Business Center Drive, said Los Angeles Police Department Officer Irma Mota.

Metrolink, which shares the tracks, reported via Twitter the “Northbound Amtrak 763 struck a person on the tracks between Northridge and Chatsworth,” and that the closed tracks affected the 106, 107 and 112 trains.

Vernae Graham, a spokeswoman for Amtrak Pacific, said the train that struck the woman was a Pacific Surfliner that operated between San Diego and Goleta.

“There was no injuries to our 164 passengers or crew,” Graham said. The passengers were waiting at 1 p.m. for another train to take them on their final destination north.
