Rail safety chiefs have questioned whether the train derailment at Paddington station was caused by the driver fasting for Ramadan.
On June 16, a Great Western train at Paddington derailed after the driver passed a red signal, resulting in massive delays during the peak of rush-hour.
The train collided with a mast carrying overhead cables, bringing the line to a standstill. There were no passengers on board at the time and the driver was unhurt.

Police call fatal Australian siege a terror attack


MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Australian police said on Tuesday that a shootout in which two men died, three police officers were wounded and a female hostage was freed was being treated as a terror attack.

Police were called to an apartment building in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton on Monday in response to reports of an explosion and discovered the body of a man in the lobby. Police tried to negotiate with a gunman in one of the apartments, an official said.

The gunman later left the building and shot three officers before police killed him. Two of the wounded police officers were taken to a hospital, and the other was treated at the scene.

Victoria state Police Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton said on Tuesday the gunman, who he did not name, had been implicated in a thwarted suicide attack at a Sydney army barracks in 2009.

"We believe that this person was there with those sorts of intentions, albeit we don't know whether it was something planned at this stage," Ashton told Seven Network television.

"We are treating it as a terror attack," he added.

Ashton earlier told Nine Network television that police were aware of the gunman "in relation to terrorism matters, albeit some years ago."

"He is someone certainly known to us from his background, but certainly as of yesterday there wasn't anything that we had that suggested that he was planning on embarking on this, that this was anything more than a spontaneous act," Ashton added.
Islamic State movement claimed responsibility for the violence.

Ashton said police did not regard the Islamic State's claim of responsibility as evidence that the violence was planned.

The Seven Network said it had received a phone call Monday afternoon from a distressed woman who said she was involved in a hostage situation.

"We asked her more information, at that point a man came on the same line and said 'This is for IS, this is for al-Qaeda,'" Seven news director Simon Pristel said.

"We asked for more information and that's when he hung up," Pristel added.

The network immediately called police and passed on the details of the call and the man's phone number.

The woman taken hostage was rescued from the apartment and "is safe and well" with investigators, police said.

"Terrorism is one line of inquiry in relation to this matter. It is early days," Crisp told reporters.

Police have shot a man who attacked an officer with a hammer outside the Notre-Dame cathedral in Paris.

The man shouted "This is for Syria" during the attack, officials say. Authorities are treating it as a terrorist incident.

The officer suffered minor injuries. The suspect was wounded in the chest when another policeman opened fire.

Tourists fled for cover as the attack unfolded. Hundreds of people were at the cathedral at the time.

France is in a state of emergency since attacks by jihadists in Paris killed 130 people in 2015.

French Interior Minister Gérard Collomb said that the assailant on Tuesday afternoon had carried the identity card of an Algerian student.

What intrigues is the similar character of four recent attacks in Paris: at the Louvre in February, where a man attacked a soldier with a machete; at Orly airport in March, where an attacker was killed after trying to take a gun from a soldier; on the Champs-Elysées last month, where a gunman killed a policeman before himself being killed; and now this.

Sounds like they just don't like the cops over there, just like America.

You wouldn't be able to tell around here. I've seen more blue American flags and blue lives matter bullshit plastered all over the place. Last week I just saw an entire truck decked out in the blue lives matter scheme.

The right, in some insane parallel universe, now loves law and order and doesn't mind their freedoms taken away as opposed to "guberment git out!" poo poo they also spout.

There is a giant Hard On for Cops movement now.

Yes, I'm aware of that. Let me rephrase that.

There is a giant Hard On for Cops movement now, that is mostly made up of right wing people.
