Vienna Metro this afternoon?
Posted by: ROC ()

Does anyone know what happened at the Vienna Metro (Nutley) this afternoon around 5pm? It was very scary to be there. I was waiting for a shuttle on the North-side parking when at least 4 cops and 8 fire engine came rushing in and then ambulances lined the Virginia Center Boulevard. From the sounds of the sirens, it seemed like the same thing thing was going on at the South-side entrance. It lasted for more than 1/2 an hour and it seemed like people were not being allowed out of the station area and cars could not get into the kiss and ride.
The firemen wouldn't say what was going on and WTOP said they received a lot of phone calls but officials wouldn't tell them anything.
