Metro traffic resumed briefly before 12:00 PM.<\/p>\n<p>Following the initial arrest, police opted for a more comprehensive inspection of the S\u0142u\u017cew station, its facilities, and infrastructure due to the individual&#8217;s lack of cooperation and a risk assessment. This required a second closure of the same ten stations on the Mokot\u00f3w and Ursyn\u00f3w lines.<\/p>\n<h4>Security Measures and Investigation<\/h4>\n<p>The Metropolitan Police Headquarters stated that these actions are prioritized to ensure station safety. Officials conducted intense efforts to gather information regarding the incident and its potential impact on passenger and staff safety.<\/p>\n<p>The suspect was detained while exiting the tunnel near the S\u0142u\u017cew station. Anna Barto\u0144, spokesperson for Warsaw Metro, confirmed that alarm systems detected an unauthorized person, leading to the deployment of police patrols.<\/p>\n<h4>Safety Inspections and Transit Alternatives<\/h4>\n<p>Crews are currently inspecting the tunnels between S\u0142u\u017cew and Ursyn\u00f3w to ensure no suspicious luggage or hazardous items were left behind. The primary objective remains the security of the traveling public.<\/p>\n<p>To mitigate travel disruption, transit authorities launched substitute bus line ZM1 serving the route between Metro Politechnika and Os. Kabaty, as well as tram line ZM2 connecting Metro Wilanowska to Pl.
