BROOKLINE — The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority is investigating the death of a person who was hit by a trolley in Brookline.

MBTA spokesman Joe Pesaturo says the pedestrian was killed early Sunday by an eastbound trolley on the tracks of the Green Line between the Longwood and Fenway stops.

That area is fenced on both sides.

The person’s identity and gender weren’t immediately released later Sunday. Pesaturo tells WCVB Channel 5 in Boston that transit police are investigating.
