SUSPECT TACKLED

NEAR BRITISH RAILWAY BRIDGE SIGNALMAN ACTS PROMPTLY. SHOT FIRED FROM ESCAPING CAR. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON. March 4. A signalman tackled a stranger with a parcel at Willesden Green railway embankment today, down which they both toppled, the suspect escaping with three companions by a car from which a shot was fired. It is assumed that the main line bridge was their objective.

Fires at 2 a.m. in two of Birmingham’s largest department stores are ascribed to slow combustion material laid by incendiaries. The damage was slight. ■
