What an idiot!
No sympathy for this idiot! He should be sued by light rail commuters who he disrupted because of his idiocyncracies!

Reminds me of something that happened a couple decades back:
Some dumb-ass kid put on head phones and decided to walk down the middle of the railroad tracks. These tracks were a high speed section where trains can hit well over 100 mph. He never heard the train coming and there was no hope in hell that the train could even slow down, let alone stop. His torso embedded into the front of the locomotive. His arms, legs, and head popped off from the force of impact. His head was never found.

Great news - With so many knuckle-heads with headphones on, talking on their cell phones or texting, these types of accidents never get reported.
If there is any damage to the Light Rail, this knuckle-head should be forced to pay for it and police should charge him for jay-walking or some sort of fine for being a hazard.
