Said the following about Mark Cunningham:

“Mark is one of our Alstom UK Installation staff working on the Crossrail West project. On 27th October 2015, Mark was on site with a member of the PC Team when they saw a member of the public trying to access the track, stating they were trying to get on a train. The individual was not fully coherent and was heading to walk on the open infrastructure, and was also carrying razorblades and in a state of discomfort (whilst being intoxicated). Mark approached the individual and calmed them down and reasoned with them to stay clear of the track, and waited until the police arrived to provide further support.

An ambulance was eventually called and the MOP was taken away.“
