He then throws his rucksack over his shoulder and crouches as the Elizabeth Line train pulls into the platform.

The man, who is from South London and in his 20s, was arrested by cops on suspicion of one count of possession of an imitation firearm with intent to cause fear or violence and one count of possession of an offensive weapon.

He has been remanded in custody.

The British Transport Police (BTP) revealed that the individual was commuting to a Comic Con event and had been “spoken to” by officers.

“A man in his 20s from south London has been arrested on suspicion of one count of possession of an imitation firearm with intent to cause fear or violence and one count of possession of an offensive weapon, he remains in custody,” a BTP spokesperson said.

“If you witnessed this incident at Whitechapel underground station on Saturday 25 January or any have any further details please contact officers on 61016 quoting reference 433 of 30 January.”

Inspector Martin Grayton appealed to Comic Con attendees to refrain from brandishing their prop weapons in public.

He said: “Every year around Comic Con, we receive reports from people who have been frightened to see weapons being carried on the train.

“We assess and respond to every call we receive about a weapon. A police response can cause disruption and alarm to passengers and, if it’s a prop, may mean that you’ve kept us away from more important incidents.

“For your sake and that of everyone else on your train, no matter how unrealistic you think they look, please keep your prop weapons out of sight while travelling.

“We rely on the travelling public’s vigilance and if you don’t feel comfortable or see something that doesn’t seem right, please report it to us by texting 61016 or calling 999 in an emergency.”

STORMTROOPER PANIC

It comes after a Star Wars fanatic caused a full-scale firearms red alert when he stepped on a train dressed as a Stormtrooper last year.

A panicked passenger called in cops when they spotted Dan Gillespie’s fake blaster, which he claims was holstered.

He was quizzed by a guard before the train ground to a halt and headed back to Aberdeen.

Dan revealed he was met by armed cops and was banned from travelling until he got a bag for the toy gun.

He claimed he’s been told never to get on a train in the £1,000 outfit again and is considering quitting cosplay for good after the scare.

Dan, 50, said: “Crazy world we live in.

“The train stopped not long out of the station. A guard came to chat asking about the blaster. Then asked me to go with him for chat.

“Apparently someone reported it to police. The train went back to Aberdeen. I was met by two firearms officers, three Police Scotland and two British Transport Police.”

Dan revealed he was grilled on the train and in the station before he was escorted home by officers.

He added: “I had to chat to them all on train and then in an office. Then they took me home to get bag for it and back for another train. I was asked not to wear Stormtrooper armour on train.”

A MOTORIST was caught speeding 46kmh over the speed limit on the busy road as thousands of vehicles have been checked for speed over the first Bank Holiday weekend of the year.

Gardai have been carrying out the road operation nationwide since 7am on Thursday as part of the St Brigid’s Day Bank Holiday weekend roads policing operation.

Throughout the operation, Gardai are conducting both statutory Mandatory Intoxicant Testing and regular, high-visibility policing checkpoints from Thursday to Tuesday.

Since the operation commenced on Thursday morning, nearly 580 drivers were detected for speeding offences during the first 48 hours.

To date, a total of 63 people have been arrested for driving under the influence of an intoxicant, which is alcohol and drugs.

There were three fatalities on the roads during the first 48 hours of the operation, bringing the total number to 14 fatal deaths this year.

Gardai revealed that most road motorists were travelling within the designated speed, but four drivers were detected to be driving dangerously.

One of the motorists was detected driving 139km/h in a 100km/h zone on the N4 at Cullen Beg in Mullingar, Co Westmeath.

Another driver was caught speeding 116km/h in a 80km/h zone on the N55 at Lissoy in Glasson, Co Westmeath.

One was detected driving 106km/h in a 60km/h zone on the R702 at Ballyellin and Tomdarragh in Goresbridge, Co Carlow.

And another was spotted speeding 86km/h in a 50km/h zone on the R661 at Holycross in Co Tipperary.

Despite the figures being reduced, there is a low number of motorists using the roads as communities continue to deal with the effects of Storm Eowyn.

Gardai urges all drivers to “use the roads with care” during the long weekend.

They stated that the risk of a fatal or serious injury road traffic collision is at its highest between midday and 3pm on the four days of the St Brigid’s Day Bank Holiday Weekend.

Drivers are also reminded to plan and organise a safe way home if socialising over the coming days, especially when planning to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

‘TAKE EXTRA CARE’

A spokesperson for Gardai said: “An Garda Síochána is urging the public to use the roads with care over the Bank Holiday weekend.

“The risk of a fatal or serious injury road traffic collision is at its highest between midday and 3pm on each of the four days of the St Brigid’s Day Bank Holiday Weekend.

“An Garda Síochána is appealing all road users to never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

“Drivers and all other road users are being reminded to plan ahead and organise a safe way home if socialising over the coming days.

“All drivers who are taking to the roads this weekend are reminded to slow down, take extra care and to give your driving your full attention.”

A Lewis Dunk own goal and a Morgan Gibbs-White header got the scoring going.

Anthony Elanga created chances for fun and Wood eventually took home the match ball, completing his hat-trick from the penalty spot.

Neco Williams then made it 6-0 before Jota Silva added a seventh in the closing stages.

The win takes Forest joint-second, level on points with Arsenal ahead of their clash with Man City.
