There were severe delays on the Victoria Line after a man was killed by a train at Finsbury Park this morning.

The man was pronounced dead at the scene but police are not treating his death as suspicious.

Services between Walthamstow Central and King's Cross were initially suspended after the incident was reported to British Transport Police (BTP) at 10.45am.

Transport for London (TfL) has said the severe disruptions to the Victoria Line have now returned to normal.

 


A BTP spokesman said: “We were called to reports of a person hit by a southbound Victoria Line train.

“We attended the incident, reported at 10.45am, alongside colleagues from the Metropolitan Police Service.

“Medics from London Ambulance Service also attended but the man was pronounced dead.

“Officers are now working to identify the man and inform his family. The incident is not being treated as suspicious.

“A file will be compiled for the coroner."
