Police appeal to identify racist attacker on train

Officers investigating a racist attack on-board a train are releasing CCTV images in connection.

Just before 4.30pm on April 19, the victim was on a train approaching West Dulwich station when a man he didn’t know began racially abusing him.

The man then repeatedly punched the victim before alighting the train at Sydenham Hill station.

Officers believe the man in the images may have useful information which could help their investigation.

If you recognise him, or have any information, please contact BTP by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 422 of 19 April.

Alternatively, call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
