Sussex Police have been praised for their actions after preventing a man jumping from a signal box and onto the tracks at Horsham station. British Transport Police were called following reports of a man trespassing and climbing onto a signal gantry at 1.38pm on Wednesday. It was more than two hours later when the police finally handed the station back to Network Rail and commuters many of whom witnessed the drama unfolding - could finally

board a train. While police officers tried to talk to the man, who was later confirmed to be a 40-year-old from Sweden, emergency crews placed crash mats underneath the signal box. One officer was praised by onlookers for his actions in preventing a gloomy outcome, by climbing the stairs and bringing the man to the floor. The man was later taken to hospital and detained under the Mental Health Act.
