Chicago — A bicyclist was hospitalized after being clipped by a CTA train Tuesday evening in the Northwest Side Lincoln Square neighborhood.
Emergency crews responded to the incident at the CTA Rockwell Brown Line station at 6:54 p.m. where a bicyclist was apparently clipped by a train, Fire Media Affairs Dir. Larry Langford said.
The man was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in “stable” to serious condition.
CTA spokeswoman Wanda Taylor said the individual was on a bike when he made contact with a southbound Brown Line train at the Rockwell station, which is at ground level. She said his injuries were not believed to be life-threatening.
Preliminary reports indicate the lights and gates were working properly at the time, Taylor said. There were no service delays due to the incident.
