A PG&E power outage caused BART service to be suspended in some areas. The outage occurred near the Coliseum station. Initially, officials reported a fire as the reason for the suspension, but this was later corrected to an equipment problem on the track, and finally to the power outage.
Service was halted between certain stations, including Lake Merritt and Hayward, and also between Fruitvale and Bay Fair. As a result, alternative bus service was provided via AC Transit.
Further details about the suspension and the power outage are available from authorities. The incident occurred on Saturday, affecting commuters in the area.
