Metro North Railroad is reporting: The New Haven Line continued scattered residual delays of up to 30 mins due to earlier police activity near. Southport.

UPDATE: Fairfield Police told me that it was a woman who attempted to jump in front of a southbound train but the train was able to stop in time.  She then was struck by a northbound Amtrak train headed to Boston.   Metro North has taken over the investigation.
