LONDON — Eurostar has suspended all services from London's St Pancras station due to a trespasser.

The rail service that links Britain to the continent says in a statement Saturday on Twitter it is "strongly recommended you not travel this morning."

British Transport Police say a 44-year-old man was arrested for trespass and obstruction of the railway.

The service has seen heavy delays and other disruptions for weeks because of a French customs officers' strike linked to concerns about extra workload when Britain leaves the European Union.
