Service resumed late Monday in both directions on the Port Jefferson line of the LIRR after being suspended earlier because a person had been hit by a train west of Huntington Station, the MTA said.

The person was hit by a train about 8 p.m., prompting suspension of Long Island Rail Road service between Hicksville and Huntington, an MTA spokeswoman said in an email.

As of 10 p.m., service had been "fully restored," according to the MTA's website.

"Customers can expect delays as we work through congestion," read a message on the website.

There was no immediate information on the person's condition or why they were on LIRR track. 

The investigation is ongoing.
