Fire Extinguisher Mess On Reston Train (Photos)

RESTON, VA -- Metro commuters in Reston recently were treated to the sight of a huge mess in a train at the Wiehle-Reston East Metro station.

Twitter user Brian Bae tweeted photos of the scene on Sept. 24, which show Metro cars completed coated with a white foam that appears to have come from a fire extinguisher nearby.

It happened on train No. 500 and on cars 7500 and 7502 at the Wiehle-Reston East station.

It's not the first time photos have been shared on Twitter of someone accessing the fire extinguisher on a Metro train and and making a mess. Riders often blame the incidents on unruly teens.

@Metrorailinfo I'm on the Car #7500 leading Train #500 at Wiehle-Reston East and it looks like a fire extinguisher went off before the train arrived at the station. Staffs on the scene to clean the car. Did the extinguisher fall off the bottom of the seat? pic.twitter.com/SfafDwYF1m

Update to the situation:
Car #7502, the third car of the consist, also has the same problem. Everyone got sent to the second car. Looks like someone was playing a little game. pic.twitter.com/7DRRfbtsky
