Paris: A train hit and killed three people and seriously injured others in the southwest of France on Tuesday morning.
A local mayor said the victims were considered a migrant who was resting on the track.
The train is on the line that connects the city of Hendaye’s seaside resort, on the French border with Spain, and the city of Bordeaux, the SNCF national railroad company said.
The collision occurred at around 5:30 a.m., attacking four people in the trail, he said.
The victims were considered migrants “who were sleeping or lying down …
on the railway,” said Eneko Aldana-Douat, Mayor of Ciboure, near the accident site.
He said it was unusual to see migrants in the area near the border.
