Protestor who delayed demolition of Bowstring Bridge charged with trespass.

A woman who chained herself to a derelict Victorian bridge in Leicester in a bid to stop its demolition has been charged with aggravated trespass.

All work was stopped when a 39-year-old woman climbed up Bowstring Bridge in the city’s West End at about 0600 GMT on Monday.

She ended her protest voluntarily after almost 12 hours and was brought down to safety by police officers.
