A BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) ride on Tuesday afternoon in San Francisco, California, turned deadly for a passenger who was brutally stabbed on the moving train as he stopped a thief from stealing another passenger's shoes, police and sources said. The Good Samaritan was killed by the assailant, who had boarded the train shoeless and tried to take the shoes off of a passenger who had been sleeping, police and sources said. BART police described the fatal attack on the Warm Springs-bound train as a fight between two men, but a BART spokesman later revealed that the confrontation was sparked by the attempted theft. A source close to the investigation told The Chronicle that three people were involved in the incident and the man who intervened was killed. Several sources described the attack, which was recorded on the train's surveillance video, as especially brutal and bloody, and it was witnessed by several passengers. The incident occurred just before 1 p.m. as the train pulled into South Hayward Station, police said. The suspect fled and was apprehended about a block from the station after he allegedly tried to steal a car at a dealership and grappled with an employee on a busy street. Public records show that Jermaine Brim, 39, of San Francisco, was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder and carjacking in Hayward at 2:30 p.m. and booked into Alameda County jail.
