Cape Town veteran journalist Lynda Loxton passed away on Wednesday night, after being dragged by a train along Lakeside station. Loxton, a parlimentary correspondent for Business Report, who regulary commuted by train from Lakeside to Cape Town, was in a coma for two weeks after the incident. It is reported that Loxton fell backwards on a moving train and was dragged along the platform. Metrorail confirmed that the incident was reported but they are unable to conclude their investigations. Loxton's memorial service was held at the Muizenberg Methodist church today.
