OAK PARK, Ill. - Green Line service was disrupted for about an hour Saturday because of a “medical emergency” in west suburban Oak Park.

Shuttle buses provided connecting service between the Harlem/Lake and Laramie/Lake stations, but trains were running again with residual delays by 2:15 a.m., according to the CTA.

Oak Park police did not provide additional details about the incident early Saturday.
