Body Found on Union Station Tracks

The Post reports that the body of an adult male was found on the tracks near Union Station shortly before 8 a.m. today. At the time, MARC reported that trains on the Camden and Brunswick lines had come to a complete stop in both directions due to the police investigation. Both lines were reopened by 10 a.m., but those caught in the morning commute mess had to take Metro in to D.C. after MARC trains were sent back to Greenbelt and Silver Spring stations, respectively. The death remains under investigation. On Sunday, an apparent double suicide in Baltimore County resulted in two deaths on a set of CSX train tracks there.

looks like those intending to kill people (whether it be someone else or their own person) are getting more creative...'tis sad

Glad that they at least sent to the trains back to a Metro session instead of just keeping folks on the train the whole time.
