Speaking of BART, police are asking for the public's help involving the shooting of a teen girl over the weekend.
The incident in question, which happened at around 10:20 p.m. on Saturday, goes like this: an 18-year-old man and a 16-year-old girl were walking up stairs from the Coliseum/Oakland Airport Station to the Snell Street parking lot in Oakland. En route, the duo were "confronted by two males who were wearing hoods that obscured their faces." The hooded suspects then demanded money from the two victims. After the 18-year-old man said "they had no money or valuables," one of the suspects shot the girl in the leg.
The hooded men then took off. The girl was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
"The only witnesses we have to this crime are the two victims,” said BART Police Patrol Bureau Commander Daniel Hartwig. “Any help the public can provide will be greatly appreciated. If you observed or heard anything related to this crime, please call the BART Police Department on our toll-free number: 877-679-7000.”
