Female guard 'assaulted' on Lincoln train carrying Leicester City fans
British Transport Police are investigating reports of an alleged assault on a female guard onboard the 08.34 Lincoln to Leicester train on Saturday.
The train was carrying around 80 Leicester City football fans who were travelling to Lincoln, despite the cancellation of the Lincoln City vs Leicester City match amidst public safety concerns.
The emergency cord onboard the train was pulled as it left the station at around 6:30pm and police officers were called to respond to the incident.
A spokesperson for the British Transport Police said: “Following the emergency cord activation the train suffered damage to its brakes and had to return to the station.
“Officers then assisted in detraining the passengers and the football fans were escorted by British Transport Police on the next available service, the 19.35 Lincoln to Nottingham service.
“We have received reports of an alleged assault on a female guard onboard the 18.34 Lincoln to Leicester service, which we are currently investigating.
“There were no other significant incidents on the rail or train system before or after the match."
