(UK) - A teenage boy who had been teased at school about his sexuality was killed after he lay down in front of a speeding train, an inquest heard yesterday. Jonathan Reynolds was struck by the 85mph train at Pencoed rail station in South Wales, on the evening of January 25 last year. Detective Chief Inspector Sandra England, of the British Transport Police, told the inquest that one of Jonathan's friends, Aimee Murray, said that just weeks before he died he had confided in her that he was gay. He had been teased about his sexuality by some boys in school and it was getting him down, she said.
