Man ‘piggybacking’ BART gates leads to gun, drug charges
A man who was stopped by BART police after allegedly “piggybacking” the Civic Center station gates behind a paying commuter faces multiple gun and drug charges...
Martinez Guillory, 51, allegedly exited the San Francisco BART station gates without paying... After being detained by a BART Police Department officer, court documents said a search of Guillory’s backpack uncovered:
The SF District Attorney’s Office said this case is the first it has filed with an arming allegation since Proposition 36 went into effect on Wednesday. Prop 36 was passed by California voters in the November election and allows for felony charges and increased sentences for certain crimes.
Guillory is expected to be arraigned in court on Friday afternoon.
