A woman was fatally stabbed Monday at the Universal City/Studio City Metro B Line Station in Studio City, and a suspect was arrested, police said.

Paramedics sent to the 3900 block of Lankershim Boulevard about 5 a.m. were directed to the platform area, and they took a patient to a hospital, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the woman died at the hospital, and a suspect, described only as a male, was arrested.

No information was available on the identity of the woman or the name of the suspect.

In a statement, Metro said the passenger was stabbed as she exited the train.

Train stops at that station have been temporarily halted for the investigation, and bus bridges were arranged to accommodate rail passengers, according to Metro officials.

Anyone with information about the stabbing was urged to call 877-LAPD-247 or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS.
