Finsbury Park station has reopened after a man died when he was hit by a train at rush hour this morning. The Victoria Line is also running, but with severe delays.
The man was pronounced dead at the station after being hit by a northbound Victoria Line train at 8.44am. Police are not treating his death as suspicious.
It is the second time in a week that the station has been closed in the morning rush hour. On Monday, an 18-year-old woman sparked a security alert when she allegedly attacked a PCSO and made her escape down a Tube tunnel. She was later arrested on suspicion of trespass and assault.
