Body Found On BART Tracks In Fremont

FREMONT, CA — BART trains are back to regular service between the Fremont and Warm Springs stations after a body was found on the tracks this morning.

BART spokesman Chris Filippi said it was too early to say whether the person was struck by a train because their injuries had not been determined.

There were no obvious signs of foul play and an Alameda County coroner's bureau crew retrieved the person from the tracks, according to BART spokesman Jim Allison.

BART officials initially issued an alert at 8:04 a.m. about the incident and said trains were single-tracking through the area.

Allison confirmed at 12:20 p.m. that the station was open and trains were operating on both tracks again.
