It’s going to be another rough commute home on Metro this evening, with major delays on the Green Line currently after a woman was struck by a train at the Georgia Ave-Petworth station a little over an hour ago. WMATA reports that Green line trains are sharing one track between the Georgia Ave-Petworth and Fort Totten stations while police and emergency personnel investigate the incident and talk with the woman, who is expected to survive.
An AP story via WTOP indicates the woman jumped in front of the train, according to witnesses. The woman appears to be about 35 years old and was semiconscious while being transported to a hospital for treatment of lacerations caused by the train.
