Train service on the Red Line faced delays Monday evening for nearly three hours after a man was hit by a train at Friendship Heights. The man, a resident of Northwest D.C. in his 40s, was struck by an inbound train headed for Glenmont around 4 p.m. Monday, according to Metro.
He was stuck under the train and had to be pulled out by D.C. Fire and EMS crews. He remained in critical condition as of 7 p.m. Officials are still investigating the incident, but Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said they are treating it as an accident.
