FHP: One dead in Clay County after getting struck by train

Jacksonville, FL — Troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol are investigating after a man from Ocala was hit and killed by a CSX train late Wednesday night in Clay County.

The crash report says the train was heading southbound while 27-year-old Shawn Cutrer was on the tracks at the Birtchwood Drive crossing near Doctor’s Lake Drive.

Cutrer was pronounced dead on the scene. Troopers say it’s unclear if alcohol played a role.

A spokesperson for CSX tells WOKV everybody on board the train is okay and there was no damage.
