A 35-year-old man who was arrested yesterday in connection with the death of a woman from Amesbury has been released under investigation.

The man, who lives locally, was held on suspicion of murder.

The body of the woman, who is believed to be her in 30’s, was found at in Bence Court, in the Wiltshire town, last Friday.

A vehicle has crashed into a level crossing near Bristol, ripping off a safety barrier.

Network Rail said the incident between Bristol Temple Meads and Severn Beach was causing disruption to train journeys locally.

All lines have re-opened and a repair has been made to the barrier, but there is a backlog to services.

After we published a piece on Monday about an amazing triple rainbow in Gloucestershire, you've been sending in your own snaps of this unusual sight.

BBC Weather Watcher Gordon photographed the triple rainbow in the village of Frampton on Severn.

"I've never seen such a thing before," he said.

The University of Gloucestershire is set to make almost 100 staff redundant.

It is understood the cut would affect staff in a mix of academic and support posts.

In a statement the university says it is operating in a "challenging" environment and its costs are rising faster than its income.

Unions are in discussions with the university about the proposal and supporting affected members of staff.

They say miscalculations over the predicted numbers of students and spending on new facilities have not helped.

Network Rail said delays to trains between Severn Beach and Bristol Temple Meads will last most of the morning.

A man who died in a crash near Amesbury last week has been named by police.

Disruption of trains around Bristol is expected for the rest of the morning, say Network Rail.

It follows the collision of a lorry into a level crossing barrier between Avonmouth and Clifton Down stations.

The lines have reopened following repairs, but a backlog of trains is causing the delays.

We are told the barrier was hit at around 8.30am by a lorry.

We understand the level crossing that has been hit is the one beneath the M5, just behind the Portway Park and Ride.

Network Rail says that the "barrier has been ripped off".

We have a reporter on the way to the scene.
