Red Line service was halted this morning for about 15 minutes after a woman told MBTA workers in Cambridge that she overheard two men dressed in fatigues talking about explosives.
MBTA transit police stopped the southbound Red Line train, which left Central Station at about 7:35 a.m., at Park Street and searched the train for the suspicious men, said Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority spokesman Joe Pesaturo.
“It’s certainly the type of activity that should be reported,” Pesaturo said.
