The Brown County Sheriff's Office said that a man died after being hit by a train early Saturday morning.

The Sheriff's Office says 22-year-old Clayton John Clark was pronounced dead from his injuries at 8:15 a.m. Saturday. Deputies say that another 22-year-old man jumped out of the way and is not injured.

Initial reports indicate that both men were walking on the railroad tracks south of Riverside Drive in Suamico.

The train came northbound. Suamico police said that the engineer of the train made multiple attempts to alert the two men.

Alcohol appears to be a factor. The incident is still under investigation.
