London’s transport body shut down part of an underground train line Friday morning because of what it says is a “security situation” at Parsons Green Tube station, in the capital’s southwest.
London’s Metropolitan Police said on Twitter: “We are aware of an incident at Parsons Green tube station. Officers are in attendance.”
Train services between Earl’s Court and Wimbledon on the District Line have been suspended, Transport for London said. Customers are advised to take alternative routes.
London Ambulance Service said it was at the scene alongside the police.
