WMATA has issued a service alert that the entrance to the Metro Center station at 13th and G Streets NW is closed due to a police situation.
A reader let us know that he can see bomb units on the scene from his office window, with a bomb-seeking robot being assembled to go into the metro entrance with a team of police dogs.
The service alert indicates that only this entrance is closed and that the station itself may remain open. We’ll will bring you more when we have it.
UPDATE: The service alert has been lifted and the station entrance has been cleared and is fully open again.
