A body was found under a moving freight train Sunday morning at Chehalis, Wash., but investigators don't know how it got there, according to the Olympian.
Crews stopped the Union Pacific freight train to investigate around 4:40 a.m. after a monitoring device indicated that something was out of the ordinary on the BNSF Railway line through Chehalis, spokesman Gus Melonas said.
The crews discovered the body dragging underneath the train, and investigators were looking into how the person got there and how long the body had been under the train, Melonas said.
The Portland-bound train, which originated from Tacoma, was delayed for two-and-a-half hours during the investigation on the tracks. No other trains were delayed.
Melonas did not have information about the gender or the age of the person who was found.
