Man Hit By Caltrain On The Peninsula

SAN MATEO, CA — A man was hit by Caltrain on tracks in San Mateo late Sunday night, the transit agency reported Monday. The man, described as a "trespasser," was rushed to the hospital, but an update on his condition was not available Monday.

The incident happened around 9:55 p.m. on the tracks just north of the San Mateo station, according to Caltrain officials.

"The person was taken to a hospital with injuries," officials said in an emailed statement. "The train was not in revenue service and no paying passengers were aboard."

No crewmembers were injured, officials said.

Trains were cleared for full-speed service on both tracks less than an hour after the man was hit and officials said no passengers were delayed. No further information was immediately available.
