Police are searching for the suspect of a shooting inside a BART train near the Lake Merritt station in Oakland Friday.
The shooting happened on a train from Dublin / Pleasanton to Daly City at around 1:25 p.m., police said.
"A bunch of kids come pouring out of a couple of the back cars. People are freaking out, I was like, someone is fighting, someone is harassing, they started screaming bloody murder, after I heard muffled voices, someone says 'get the police, someone got shot,’” said witness Loren Holmes.
One person was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries and the shooter is still at large, police said, adding they believe it was a targeted attack.

The police said the gunman got off at the Fruitvale station.
"When we got to Lake Merritt, they advised us to get off the train because someone had been shot. So everyone attacked the door, I tried to hang back to not get mobbed," said witness Charles Correia.
BART officials said people should expect delays on the Berryessa Line in the Daly City, Richmond, Berryessa and Dublin directions.
