Potentially the latest example of dangerous summer school holiday madness involving an airgun or BB gun? Very unfortunate if so. Hopefully no-one injured and even better it turns out to be a mistaken report of some other cause of damage...

"Trains in and out of Cheltenham Spa station are reported to be stopped after reports of shots being fired at a freight train driver approaching the town. A passenger on a train near Cheltenham told Gloucestershire Live: 'I'm on a train which is stopped outside Cheltenham. It seems that all trains at the station have been stopped. It seems that a freight train driver was shot at.' Gloucestershire police have confirmed that the window of the cab of a freight train was broken by a shot. The train is currently stopped in Swindon Village [a suburb of Cheltenham]. Police are deploying an armed response vehicle to investigate."
