French police are investigating the suicide death of a woman who threw herself under a train Tuesday and live-streamed her death on Periscope. The woman was killed at the Égly station, just south of Paris on the C line of the R.E.R. train system.
The 19-year-old woman's name has not been released. "This person allegedly sent an SMS to one of her close relations, several minutes before her death, to announce her intentions," Eric Lallement, a local prosecutor, said in a statement. "Furthermore, she allegedly made statements to Internet users, via the Periscope application, to explain her act."
The woman is said to have named a person she claims had recently raped her before she committed suicide.
