DENHAM SPRINGS - The Livingston Parish Coroner s Office and Denham Springs Police Department have identified the man who was hit and killed by a train Tuesday evening at a railroad crossing off Florida Boulevard.
Officials say it was shortly after 5 p.m. when 39-year-old Kenneth Henson of Denham Springs was struck and killed by an eastbound locomotive, east of Summer Street.
Train personnel told police they saw Henson walking Westbound on the North rail, as if on a tightrope, with his head down and possibly wearing earbuds prior to being struck; he never responded to horn blasts from the train.
