The Boston Fire Department reports that shortly before 9 p.m., a woman in a motorized wheelchair tumbled off a commuter-rail platform at North Station:

With no train on track 3 at the time, the victim fell about 7' on to the tracks.

Firefighters found her with multiple cuts and placed her on boards to be handed off to EMTs for transport to a nearby hospital. No immediate word on what caused her fall. The department adds it took several firefighters to lift her 600-lb. wheelchair back onto the platform.
