A person was shot multiple times Saturday evening at the Rockridge BART station in North Oakland, BART police said.

Police received several 911 calls at about 6:30 p.m. to report shots fired at the station, Lt. Michael Hayes said.

Oakland and BART police officers found evidence of that shots had been fired and learned that the suspects fled into the surrounding neighborhood, he said.

Officers set up a perimeter around the area and detained one suspect who was interviewed by detectives, Hayes said.

Police found the victim inside a vehicle on a nearby street, he said. The victim was reportedly taken to a local hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening.
