Person Believed Armed Barricades Inside BART Hayward Yard

BART reports minimal Green Line disruption after rerouting trains from other facilities.

Overview

  • BART said a trespasser barricaded himself alone in a building at the Hayward Maintenance Complex and was believed to be armed with a knife.
  • The yard was evacuated and power was shut off, preventing trains from being dispatched from that facility.
  • Green Line service continued with trains dispatched from other yards, and the agency described overall impacts as minimal with all stations open.
  • As of about 8:10 a.m., the person remained inside while BART police worked to resolve the situation, and no injuries were reported.
  • The first advisory posted around 4:30 a.m. noted limited Green Line service between Berryessa and Daly City.
