On Wednesday, authorities identified 21-year-old Jila Jandaghi, from Granada Hills, as the woman who lost her life after getting hit by a Metrolink Train Tuesday in the Van Nuys area.
The fatal pedestrian accident took place at around 5:40 a.m. Tuesday on Balboa and Roscoe boulevards between the Northridge and Van Nuys stations, and involved Metrolink train 100 on the Ventura County Line, which was en route from Moorpark to Los Angeles. Jila Jandaghi succumbed to her injuries at the scene.
Jandaghi was in a “non-pedestrian” area when the incident happened. There were about 40 people on the train at the time of the accident, and no one was hurt. Alternate transportation was arranged for the passengers, and the railroad tracks were shut down during the investigation. No other information is available.
An investigation is ongoing.
