British Transport Police (BTP) detectives are appealing for witnesses to come forward following the death of a man at East Action station. 

Officers were called to East Acton station just after 11pm on Friday 19 April to reports of a casualty on the tracks.

Paramedics also attended, however sadly a man in his 20s from the Waltham Forest area was pronounced dead at the scene.

His family are being supported by specialist officers and additional, high-visibility reassurance patrols are also ongoing in the area British Transport Police say. 

A man in his 40s was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and has since been bailed with conditions.    

Detectives continue to investigate the circumstances leading up to his death.

Officers urge witnesses, or anyone else with information who is yet to speak to police, to get in touch by texting 61016 or by calling 0800 40 50 40, quoting reference 1000 of 19 April.

Alternatively you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
