Man Abducted, Robbed from Hayward BART Station

No injuries were reported.

Local authorities are searching for three suspects who abducted a man from the Hayward BART station, robbed him and left him in Fremont late Saturday night, according to Fremont police.

Fremont Police Spokeswoman Geneva Bosques said two men and one woman pulled up in a vehicle next to the victim and asked him for his wallet. When he refused, the driver pointed a gun at him and told him to get into the car, police said.

The group then traveled south, and within that time, the victim was robbed of his wallet, which contained cash, and a Sony PlayStation 3, Bosques said.

Once they reached Fremont, just before 11 p.m., the man was told to get out of the car near the intersection of Stewart Avenue and Boyce Road and the victim then called 9-1-1, Bosques said.

The suspect vehicle was described as a mid-1990s, four-door Mazda.

The female suspect was described as 5-foot-7 tall, 130 pounds with blonde hair and hazel eyes. She was last seen wearing a grey hoodie and black pants.

The driver was described as a Hispanic male, 5-foot-5 and 160 pounds with a shaved head and black eyes and wearing a black-and-grey checkered short sleeve shirt with dark pants. The gun was described as a silver revolver.

Police said the third suspect was also described as a Hispanic male who is approximately 6-foot-3 and 265 pounds. Authorities, however, said it is not believed that the third suspect took part in the actual robbery.

BART Police spokeswoman Officer Era Jenkins said there was no record of the abduction in BART's police log but noted that the crime might not have been reported to the agency.
