BROSSARD – A second man involved in a light-rail train accident on Montreal’s South Shore has died.

Provincial police confirmed the 22-year-old’s death on Sunday afternoon.

A 19-year-old man was also declared dead when first responders found him along the tracks early Saturday, near the train’s Du Quartier station in Brossard.

Police say the accident happened around 3 a.m. Saturday, when three young men attempted to use the tracks to cross to the other side of Highway 10.

A third man, also 19-years-old, survived the accident.

The train network, the Réseau express métropolitain, acknowledged the incident in a post on social media on Saturday, writing that management was deeply saddened by what happened.

“Our thoughts are with the family and loved ones affected by this tragedy,” it added.
