A top BART official apologized on Monday after a Bay Area man was arrested for eating a sandwich on the platform last week, capping a viral incident that angered riders and spurred an “eat-in” on Saturday.

In a statement, the transit agency’s general manager Bob Powers apologized directly to the rider, identified by KTVU as Steve Foster of Concord, and said he was “disappointed” in how the situation unfolded.
