Croydon-to-Wimbledon racist tram rant accused in court
A woman has appeared in court after a video apparently showing a passenger abusing ethnic minority people on a south London tram was posted online. The clip, viewed more than two million times since being uploaded to YouTube on Sunday, shows a woman sitting with a child, shouting at fellow passengers. Emma West, of New Addington, Croydon, was accused of a racially/religiously aggravated intentional harassment. The 34-year-old was remanded in custody while reports are prepared. She is next due to appear at Croydon Magistrates' Court on 6 December. British Transport Police said the YouTube clip was of an incident on the Croydon-to-Wimbledon Tramlink route. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-15933829
