London passengers were left stunned after a man claiming to have a gun jumped onto the tracks and started singing a UB40 song.
Bystanders watched as the man allegedly ‘ran up and down’ the tracks while belting out a song by the 80s band, reports Evening Standard.
People were asked to evacuate the station once British Transport Police and the Met arrived on the scene last night.
Ed Quigley tweeted: ‘I’m told there is a civilian, not wearing much, dancing on the train track singing UB40.
‘Armed police and at least 8 cars at an evacuated Lewisham Station.’

A spokesman for British Transport Police said they were called to the station at 8pm on Saturday after a man was reported to be on the railway line.
A 32-year-old man was arrested minutes later, police added.
