Witnesses say people ran off a MARTA train at the Midtown station Tuesday evening.

MARTA spokesman Erik Burton said there was a “disturbance” on a southbound train and as passengers “quickly exited” a child fell.

Emergency medical service workers were sent to check him out, Burton said.

Normal service has resumed, but police are investigating the incident, Burton said.
