A 22-year-old killed himself at Metro’s Shady Grove station Monday evening by jumping off the seventh floor of a parking garage, the transit agency confirmed Tuesday.

Metro did not notify the media about the death, as it “had no effect on service,” according to Metro spokeswoman Cathy Asato. One entrance to the garage remained open during the police investigation and Red Line rail and bus service were not disrupted, she said.
