A pedestrian was struck and critically injured by a Metro A (Blue) Line train Friday evening near the Slauson Station and taken to a trauma center.

The accident occurred around 7:05 p.m. near 1657 E. Slauson Ave., on the border of Los Angeles and the unincorporated Florence area, according to Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Nicholas Prange.

A Line trains were temporarily stopped so firefighters could remove the man from under the train, Prange said.
