The fatal shooting of a man by police along Metrorail tracks in the District Thursday night disrupted service for the Orange, Blue and Silver lines.

The Potomac Avenue station in Southeast D.C. was also shut down as firefighters removed the body from the tracks about 400 feet east of the station, inside the tunnel.

I have no idea what this is about. Homeless guy? Drunk? No idea why the cop shot him, either.

Odd location, though

Stop posting this sort of news unless you can tell us the schedule for the riots to follow Be precise, please. The last time I got to the “demonstrations” all the good stuff was gone.

Isis/Al Qaida terrorist looking for a good place to plant a bomb? Maybe there’s a good reason for this news blackout. And maybe those cops had been warned and saw it coming. Just wonderin’.

Well, if this would be true there would be an excellent chance that the information will be buried deeper than Hillary’s emails.

Female Metro cop. Don’t know the ethnic make-up of either cop or deceased, but I’d guess there’s probably not going to be a demonstration.

Rhoda, baby, for me it's Manolo Blahnik, Air Jordans, or barefoot. I certainly would not want the people at the AFDC office laughing at me! This may be the 'hood, but someone must maintain standards.

Converse? You white people slays me!
