No foul play in death of man found unresponsive on D.C. Metro train Balmy week in D.C. area could give way to light snow
(about 1 hour later)
There are no signs of foul play in the death of a man who was found unresponsive Thursday night on a Metro Blue Line train in Northwest Washington, a transit spokesman said. Not only was Friday a windy day, the kind for which March is known, but Saturday and Sunday may see a bit of snow in the region, exemplifying the fickleness of early spring and of weather in general.
The man was found about 8 p.m. on the train at the Foggy Bottom station, D.C. police said. The District government announced Friday that it would deploy its snow team Saturday at 9 p.m. It said snow might fall occasionally Saturday night through Sunday night. Any accumulation would be slight, the announcement said, but motorists were asked to be careful, especially during Monday’s rush hour.
Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said two passengers noticed that the man was not moving and notified the train operator at the station, where the train was held for medical personnel. Snow this late in the season is not unheard of, but this March has been relatively balmy and has appeared far more reminiscent of spring than of winter.
The passengers thought the man was sleeping, Stessel said. Friday’s temperatures were well above normal, and the month has averaged about nine degrees above normal.
The man died at a hospital, according to police. Stessel said the death was not suspicious. — Martin Weil
