Phoenix Woman Killed By Train In Downtown Flagstaff Sunday Evening

A Phoenix woman was killed by a train Sunday evening in downtown Flagstaff. The incident took place at the intersection of Beaver Street and Route 66 around 9:30 p.m. Officials say 25-year-old Larilynn Ben was trying to cross between two cars while the Amtrak train had come to a stop and came out on the other set of tracks. The Amtrak train engineer blew the train’s horn repeatedly to warn Larilynn of the oncoming BNSF train traveling eastbound, but it was too late. Officials say Larilynn was pronounced dead on the scene. No further information is available at this time.
