Even the station agent at the South Hayward BART station was surprised by the news this morning - she quickly made some signs that would soon surprise her passengers - announcing no train service south of Hayward. Her customers were not happy.

Members of a Hayward Church are thankful that no one is injured after a car plowed through the crowded building during a grocery giveaway.

A parishioner at the New Presbyterian Church on Patrick Street accidentally hit the gas instead of the brake Tuesday afternoon, launching her Toyota Camry up a walkway and into the sanctuary, ripping off the churches double doors and launching it into the organ.

Witnesses say that if the car had hit the church just fifteen feet from where it did it would have run into a line of 70 families who had come for free food.
