METRO's bus and rail system is 100% ADA accessible, but sometimes, additional assistance is needed. That's where METROLift comes in. With the option to book same-day trips, METROLift offers curb-to-curb service, and can even help passengers to the door, if requested. ^B | Houston METRO

Two Harris County deputies working an extra job at a north Houston METRO rail platform shot and killed a man who they say cut one of them with a knife Wednesday, according to investigators. It all unfolded at the rail platform on Fulton Street. Houston police say officers were called to the area around 6:30 p.m. after getting reports of a shooting. When they got there, they found a man who had been shot at least once. That man was taken to LBJ Hospital, where he later died. KHOU 11 News | Anayel
