Three people in Pennsylvania are dead after being struck Thursday by a train near Philadelphia.

Bristol Borough Police Chief Joe Moors said during a news conference Thursday that three people were killed by an Amtrak train traveling from Boston, Massachusetts, to Richmond, Virginia.

Police were called to an area near the tracks at about 6 p.m. after receiving reports of people on the tracks.

In a travel advisory, Amtrak announced all rail traffic scheduled to depart New York and Philadelphia is being held.

“We apologize for the inconvenience and will provide an update as details become available,” Amtrak wrote in the advisory. “We appreciate your patience.”
