DELRAY BEACH — The man killed Saturday by a Tri-Rail train Saturday was identified today as Roosevelt Kendricks, 47, of Delray Beach.
Just before he died, police say Kendricks "defiantly" held his middle finger up to the oncoming locomotive before trying to make a last second exit from the tracks.
After displaying his middle finger, Kendricks just missed making it off of the tracks in time, police said. He was struck by the train and died instantly.
His death is being ruled an accident, not a suicide, at this time, police said.

Darwin wins. But do you know what would have been fabulous? If a big 13 was painted on the train, like "No. 13"--in red, of course. And all sorts of geometric shapes were shifting all around.
Mmf. This guy had it coming, one way or the other.
I don't know why, but I really dig his name...Roosevelt Kendricks!
Aren't you supposed to hit the gas at the same time?
Wow, I guess he asked for that one.
