A 57-year-old Manassas woman died after lying down in front of an Orange Line train Monday, becoming the first suicide on the Metro system in 2013.
Her death shut down service entirely at the Ballston station, where the eight-car train struck her, stopping trains for nearly four hours between the East Falls Church and Virginia Square stops. Metro did not release the woman’s name, as per an agency policy.
