The individual that was hit by the train yesterday in San Marcos was a 16 year old male. Union Pacific Media Director for Texas Jeff DeGraff says that the individual had headphones in at the time of the accident and could have potentially been the reason why he did not hear the warning signs from the train. The Individual crossed at an area that was not designated for pedestrian crossing and was at fault. He had a handgun in his possession and the San Marcos Police Department will be looking into the motive of the 16 year old. He is still at University Hospital in San Antonio with severe injuries.
