Officers are questioning a woman arrested on suspicion of murdering a 60-year-old man who was found dead at a house.

Officers were called to Merlin Walk in Castle Vale, Birmingham, in the early hours of Sunday.

West Midlands Police said a post-mortem examination would take place in due course and a cordon was in place while inquiries continued.

A 52-year-old woman was arrested.

In Eddie Fanton's 16-year career he has experienced a death on the track and many more near misses.

On the Virgin train driver's route from London to Birmingham he said he can expect to see a couple of trespassers a month.

British Transport Police is preparing for a surge in trespass incidents during the half-term holidays.

Figures show the number of children caught trespassing on the railways has almost doubled from 1,194 in 2014/15 to 2,215 in 2017/18.
