GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The Grand Rapids Police Department is investigating after a train hit and killed a pedestrian.

Officers responded to Front Avenue SW just after 7:30 p.m. Thursday.

Front was closed for several hours between Wealthy Street SW and Emperor Street SW while officers investigated.

Investigators say there is no evidence of foul play and have since ruled the pedestrian's death a suicide.
