CHICAGO — Blue Line trains were delayed briefly after a man fell onto the tracks Thursday morning.

Police said the man fell from the platform onto the tracks near the California stop of the Blue Line around 7:30 a.m. Thursday.

The man was alert and talkative when he was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center. His injuries were not considered life-threatening, said Officer Jose Estrada, a Chicago Police Department spokesman.
