Zachary Winston, the brother of Michigan State’s Cassius Winston and a sophomore at Albion College, was killed on Saturday night after being struck by a train.
Albion Chief of Public Safety Scott Kipp confirmed Winston was struck by a westbound Amtrak train around 8:30 p.m. near the Erie Street crossing in Albion. The investigation revealed that Winston, 19, appeared to intentionally step in front of the train.
“According to the engineer, the student stepped out in front of the train,” Kipp said. “It appears to be intentionally done.”
Zachary Winston was a member of the Albion basketball team along with younger brother Khy, a freshman.
