If You See Something, Say Something:
Speed and mischief

While getting off the Orange Line at Metro Center on Oct. 26, I saw three Metro police standing at the exit. As I scanned my SmarTrip at the exit, from out of nowhere, four young guys came running through the gate and right past the police.

The chase was on.

The funny thing is that when they ran past the police, they had so much speed that all four of them were like Usain Bolt (World Champion Sprinter).

By the time they raced up the escalators the officers had lost the teenagers. They were so fast that the police had to laugh. One officer said he had never seen anyone run so fast and get up the escalators with that speed.

Whatever; it is always something on the Metro. Happy Monday Morning!
