Light-rail trains resuming in downtown Minneapolis after suspicious package

May 12, 2016 at 10:59PM

After about an hourlong delay of service, Metro Transit light-rail trains are resuming in both directions between the Target Field and U.S. Bank Stadium stops.

Buses had replaced trains after a suspicious package was found between Nicollet Mall and Hennepin Avenue S., spokesman Howie Padilla said. Minneapolis police were investigating.
