 The U.S. Federal Communications Communication reportedly intends to investigate the Bay Area Rapid Transit system over the San Francisco-area public transportation system's recent shutdown of cellphone service at four stations in the face of a public protest. BART cut cell phone services for several hours on Aug. 11 when a public demonstration began moving from station to station. The demonstrators were protesting the shooting of homeless man Charles Hill by BART police last month.
