FPD Update to Fatal Train vs Pedestrain Last Night



From Flagstaff Police: FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — September 10, 2024 — At approximately 9:12 PM, officers from the Flagstaff Police Department were dispatched to the Mountain Line bus stop located on the eastbound 3600 block of E Route 66 in response to a report of trespassing and a possible disturbance. Upon arrival, officers determined that there was no physical altercation between the involved parties and that everyone was free to leave.

One individual, identified as Danley Bahe, departed toward the intersection of E Route 66 and N Fanning Dr. While waiting for a westbound train to clear the intersection, Danley walked outside the designated crossing area and onto the eastbound tracks. Officers observed an eastbound train approaching the intersection and began shouting at Danley to move from the tracks. Despite their warnings, Danley was struck by the train and was pronounced deceased at the scene by medical personnel.
