Police seek suspect in fatal stabbing at 24th St. Mission BART station
SAN FRANCISCO -- Police are looking for the man who fatally stabbed another man Sunday afternoon on the 24th Street Plaza above 24th Street Mission station in San Francisco.
BART police released a statement Sunday afternoon, saying "surveillance cameras show two adult males arguing near the elevator at approximately 1:40 p.m. before one individual stabs the second individual. The stabbing victim walked down the stairs into the station and subsequently collapsed on the platform."
The suspect then fled the area. BART personnel attempted to aid the victim but the unidentified man died at the scene.
Anyone with information about the incident can call BART police at (510) 464-7081
This all comes a week after community members knocked down temporary fences lining the very same BART plaza.
BART installed the fencing last month as part of a crackdown on illegal street vending, the sale of stolen goods and open-air drug dealing.
