The CTA Red Line has resumed normal service between the Howard and Belmont stops after a medical emergency on the the tracks.

Shortly before noon the Chicago Transit Authority sent out an alert that service had temporarily been suspended for a medical emergency on the tracks.

There are reports that a CTA worker was struck and injured by a train, but neither police, fire nor CTA officials have released any specific information about the type of medical emergency.

CBS Skywatch was over the scene at the Howard station, where fire crews were seen on the tracks and yellow police tape spanned the entrance from the street.

Normal train service has since been restored. 

CBS News Chicago has reached out to the Chicago Police Department and the Chicago Fire Department for more information.
