Several people have been reportedly injured after a shooting at a funeral home in the town of Hayward in the San Francisco Bay Area of California.

According to local media reports, the shooting took place at the Chapel of the Chimes at around 7 p.m. local time while two funeral services were being conducted.

Three people were reported shot during the shooting spree even as the Hayward Police Department is yet to confirm the identity of any of the victims or provide any information on the suspects.

As a result of the incident, trains operating on the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system  skipped their regular stops at Hayward Station for at least 10 minutes before resuming normal services.
