Nov. 03--A person was arrested walking on the Loop "L" tracks this afternoon, after the CTA had to cut off power so police could catch him.
The person was arrested about 2:40 p.m., according to a CTA spokeswoman.
The person was arrested near Jackson Street and Wabash Avenue.
The CTA had to turn off power on the Loop "L" for a time, delaying trains running on the Loop, according to the CTA's Twitter feed.
