It was there that police met the man, who they found to be in possession of bolt cutters and several knives.
The suspect was arrested on suspicion of possessing burglary tools and for violating his probation, police said.
A little more than an hour later, BART police responded to the North Concord station for a report of a man stalking a woman.
