Police are appealing for information about a person of interest
Police have launched a CCTV appeal after a woman was slapped by a creep who sexually assaulted her in a London Underground station. The victim was violated as she walked through Baker Street station, in Marylebone, shortly before 8.30pm on Saturday, July 4.
The perpetrator hit the woman across the face when she confronted him about the inappropriate behaviour. No arrests have been made in connection almost three months on.
The British Transport Police (BTP) is now releasing an image of a man they need to identify and locate in connection. “Detectives would like to speak to the person pictured, as they believe he may have information that could help their investigation,” the force said
The footage shows a young man with short, wavy black hair. He is wearing a black zip-up jumper.
Anyone who recognises him is asked to contact BTP by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40, quoting reference 723 of 4 July. Information can also be given anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Elsewhere in London, officers continue to investigate an assault at Hackney Downs station. The suspect ‘became aggressive’ towards passengers on a train before punching a man on the platform.
