Chicago Transit Authority Loop 'L' service was disrupted downtown in the middle of the Monday evening rush due to the discovery of a suspicious package.

The CTA said trains in Loop were standing at Washington/Wabash. The Brown, Orange, Purple, Green, and Pink lines run on the Loop tracks. Trains on all lines were moving again by 6:15 p.m., but with delays.

However, the CTA said the Red and Blue lines — which run in the State and Dearborn Street subways, respectively, also experienced major during the disruption.

The CTA did provide further information about the suspicious package or where it was found.
