“Try to be extra cautious and vigilant. I think I feel most safe,” said Ivan Panado. Others, such as the leader of the D.C. Guardian Angels, have voiced a desire for more security measures, such as installing metal detectors at train station entrances.

“It’s touchless, so you don’t even know it’s there,” said John Ayala. “You just walk through, and it will pick up on you, scan you quickly, and see if you have any weapons.” According to MPD, they have identified a suspect.
