Suicide By Train In Hazlet

Another suicide-by-train occurred this morning. Someone reportedly stepped in front of the New York-bound NJ Transit train near the Beers Street crossing between Hazlet and Aberdeen-Matawan stations. Bus service moved passengers around the incident. 

The Asbury Park Press incorrectly suggested that only Middletown, Hazlet and Aberdeen-Matawan stations were affected. Obviously the writer doesn't grasp the basics of rail transportation. At least they reported some local news from our area for a change, however grim.
