British woman killed in stabbing at German railway station

A British woman has died after being stabbed at a railway station in southern Germany in the early hours of Sunday morning, police have said.

The 31-year-old woman was attacked at the station in Rosenheim, Bavaria, shortly before 01:00 local time (00:00BST). She was taken to hospital where she died as a result of "severe" injuries, the Bavarian Police said in a statement.

Officers arrested a 27-year-old German man at the scene immediately after the incident. The background and motive for the attack is under investigation, the statement added.

Police have asked anyone who may have witnessed "an argument or physical altercation" at the station late on Saturday or early on Sunday to contact them.

The suspect, from the Fürstenfeldbruck district, will be brought before magistrates later on Sunday, according to German news agency DPA.

It is not known if the two knew each other or what the woman was doing in Bavaria, DPA also reported.

Rosenheim is one of the largest cities in Upper Bavaria and is a busy rail hub for passengers travelling to Austrian cities including Vienna, Salzburg and Innsbruck.

The Rosenheimer Herbstfest - an event similar to the Oktoberfest beer festival - is currently taking place in the area.

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.

A pub has paid tribute to its "beloved" manager after she was stabbed to death in Germany.

Rebecca Bullock, 31, was attacked at Rosenheim station shortly before 01:00 local time (00:00 BST) on Sunday. She was taken to hospital but later died.

Bavarian Police said a 27-year-old German man, of no fixed address, was arrested at the scene and later detained in a psychiatric hospital on suspicion of murder.

The White Swan, in Whitchurch, Buckinghamshire, said: "We are so deeply sorry to say that our beloved Becca passed away over the weekend whilst away on holiday.  Becca was much-loved by all of the team at the White Swan and our amazing locals," its Facebook post read.

The pub closed from Monday after what it described as a "tough few days", but its landlords said it would reopen from 15:00.  They said: "We know this is what Becca would have wanted."
