The drama took place this Thursday in the early evening in the town of Grenay in Isère. A TGV connecting Grenoble to Paris struck a person on foot. According to Le Dauphiné, the victim died instantly. An investigation was opened but the hypothesis of a desperate gesture was advanced.
The intervention required the mobilization of fifteen firefighters. The train, which was carrying about 150 passengers, was immobilized for almost three hours. Traffic on the high-speed line was also disrupted.
