Update: BART Police Make Arrest in Connection With Stabbing

by ECT

The BART Police Department is releasing images of a person of interest in connection with the overnight stabbing outside the Warm Springs BART Station during non-service hours.

Police investigators are asking for the public’s help in identifying this man so they can interview him.

Fremont police received a call at approximately 2:18 am of a man lying in a street near the Warm Springs Station. A 39-year-old man, who appears to be a transient, was found with non-life threatening injuries to his chest and buttocks.

The case was turned over to BART police when it was determined the incident happened on BART property.

The incident occurred outside the BART station after the station had closed. The details surrounding the assault are not entirely clear, but an investigation is underway.

Anyone with information on the person of interest or the incident should call BART police investigators at 510-464-7040.

UPDATE
21-year-old Joshua Fecker, a transient, has been arrested. Fecker is the same man shown in surveillance images captured by BART cameras at the Warm Springs Station that were released to the public. A BAR-T police officer recognized and detained Fecker at the Richmond Station Thursday night. After an interview by BART police detectives, it was determined Fecker was the suspect in Thursday’s attack.

Fecker has been booked into Santa Rita Jail. His arrest comes less than 24 hours after the overnight assault.
