Four held as man dies in train plunge

Police are questioning four people today after a 23-year-old student plunged to his death from a moving train.

Police are treating the death as suspicious but refused to say if they had launched a murder inquiry until they have interviewed witnesses.

Two women and two men were arrested at the scene last night.

The victim was travelling on the 10.57pm Alton to London Waterloo service with friends when he fell from the slam-door train at Pirbright Junction, Surrey, between Ash Vale and Woking.

A transport police spokesman said officers were keeping an open mind on the case.
