CCTV image released following bomb hoax on train from Skegness to Nottingham
Officers investigating a man who threatened to detonate a grenade on a train from Skegness to Nottingham have today released this image in connection.
British Transport Police say that at around 4.40pm on Sunday, May 18, a train guard on board the train asked a man to stop swearing. The man proceeded to take a grenade from his bag before pulling the pin, although the grenade did not detonate. He later claimed to be joking, though continued to act in a threatening manner towards other passengers on the train. The man then left the train at Boston.
