Jilted lover walks in front of train driven by girlfriend who left him 3 weeks ago

Posted: 21 Aug 2014 08:55 AM PDT

A jilted lover killed himself by standing in front of a train driven by his ex-girlfriend, it emerged last night. Gary Wells, 36 (left), was said to be distraught after splitting from Diane MacDonald, 29 (right), three weeks ago. Miss MacDonald was powerless to prevent a collision after he stepped on to the track in front of the train she was driving on one of Britain's most scenic rail routes.

Mr Wells died instantly as he was hit by the train. 

Miss MacDonald, the first woman train driver on the West Highland Line in Scotland, was left so distressed that she required sedation after the tragedy, which happened at Inverlochy, near Fort William, on Tuesday morning. Continue...


Mr Wells had been in a long-term relationship with Miss MacDonald but friends said their relationship ended around three weeks ago.

Sources said the break-up had left Mr Wells struggling to cope.

Last night, a school friend told how Mr Wells was a devoted father whose weekends were spent with his son Lewis, who was from a previous relationship.

The friend, who did not wish to be named, said: 'Gary was a nice guy.
'He and Diane were like peas in a pod. They were together for eight or nine years and split up a few weeks ago. I can't believe he did this. I heard Diane had to be sedated.
'It's so sad. He loved spending time with his son Lewis. His weekends were devoted to him.'
Mr Wells is thought to have been working at a local engineering company and had previously worked some evenings and weekends as a pub bouncer.

His family was too distressed yesterday to talk about what happened. In a statement, Miss MacDonald said last night: 'The circumstances are extremely upsetting for everyone involved. We would ask the media to please respect our privacy while we come to terms with what has happened.'

Fake soldier granted interview to BBC - DHQ says

Posted: 21 Aug 2014 05:53 AM PDT

On Tuesday August 19th, a Nigerian soldier spoke with the BBC explaining why himself and some other soldiers refused the order from their superiors to go fight Boko Haram insurgents. He alleged that they were not provided good weapons and ammunition and so gave Boko Haram the upper hand during any battle because the militants are more well equipped (read that here).

Now the Defence Headquarters says the man who spoke with BBC is an impostor. Their statement below
That degree of cowardice is not in the character of a real soldier of the Nigerian Army.  The series of lies contained in the alleged responses of the faceless person referred to as a soldier confirms the whole arrangement as another step of the mischief makers working for terrorists.  No soldier has been sent on any mission without being armed. Each soldiers answers for his action in terms of discipline.
Anyone who knows the military reward for mutiny will not join another person to try it.  The overwhelming majority of the Nigerian soldiers remains as brave and disciplined as ever.  They will certainly not join any renegade, coward, deserter or those trying to incite mutiny in the military to betray the nation at time like this, in a way that impostor told his interviewers.  His claims are false.
Certainly soldiers are not being sent to die.  We may not have everything now, but we are improving on weapons and equipment rapidly
