BART Rockridge Station Reopens After Major Medical Emergency

The Rockridge BART station reopened and trains are again stopping there, the agency says late Monday on its Twitter account.

The station was closed at 2:58 p.m. Monday after what BART had reported as a "major medical emergency" there. A person "on the trackway" had been struck and killed by an eastbound train. Trains had been passing through the station in both directions without stopping, BART spokeswoman Anna Duckworth said.
