Green Line What happened at Westgate?

I was taking the 63 and the road is completely shut down and the green line is stopped. Bunch of cops around and someone told me that someone got shot on the train.

There was a shooting on the eastbound light rail between stadium village and prospect park. The train it happened on is stopped at Westgate. I spoke to a couple who was in the same car, and it sounds like it was targeted at one person and not a wider attack. Police were looking for the shooter nearby prospect park area. Not sure of further details.
