Officers are appealing for witnesses to an incident of threatening and abusive behaviour at Edinburgh Waverley railway station.
Last Saturday (9 September), a man on board the Plymouth to Edinburgh Cross Country service missed his stop and began to behave in a threatening and abusive way to staff and to a member of the public. The full journey takes around eight hours, and the incident took place between 7.30pm and 8pm.
Police met the train at Edinburgh Waverley station and spoke with the man, but he then ran off across the tracks. The officers caught up with him, but he resisted arrest and was taken into custody.
Anyone who witnessed the incident can text 61016 or call 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 759 of 8 September. Alternatively, call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
