From the BBC» (British Broadcasting Corporation - home page):

Quote
A 43-year-old man has been arrested by police after a female train passenger suffered serious facial injuries in an alleged assault.

Police are appealing for witnesses on the 19:43 GMT service from Cardiff to Swansea following the Wales v New Zealand rugby international at the Millennium Stadium earlier on Saturday.

The 27-year-old woman was taken to hospital after arriving at Swansea and reported being punched several times.

Police say the man is in custody.

A spokesperson for British Transport Police (BTP▸ (British Transport Police)) said the woman has been released from Swansea's Morriston Hospital after receiving treatment. He added: "The train, the 19:43 GMT service from Cardiff to Swansea, would have been busy with others who may have attended the Wales v New Zealand rugby international. Anyone who was on the train and witnessed the alleged assault is urged to contact BTP as a matter of urgency."

Call BTP on 0800 40 50 40 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111. Quote incident 611 of 24/11/2012.

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
