C2C Cable theft ?
Discussion
From the C2C Website The British Transport Police have made the following statement to the Southend Echo:
"At 6.51am BTP were called to the Castle Lane area of Hadleigh, Essex between Benfleet and Leigh-on-Sea following a report of disruption to power lines in the area and a body on the railway embankment.
“BTP, Essex Police, East of England Ambulance Service and Network Rail attended the scene and the body of a man in his 40s was found beside the line. He appears to have been electrocuted.
“This death is currently being treated as unexplained. The possibility that this death is related to an attempted cable theft is one line of enquiry at this time."
We do sincerely apologise for the disruption to your journey this morning and will continue to provide further updates on this page.

Yes well at least now he has blown out he won't be charged. If they had caught him at it he could have resisted arrest meaning a stretch inside where we are running low on capacitor already... ok I am oot bad puns now.Edited by Carfiend on Wednesday 27th June 14:13
