POLICE are searching for a man wanted for questioning in relation to the sexual assault of a disabled woman on a train heading to Westbury.

The incident took place between 5.20pm and 6pm on March 18 when the victim, a 24-year-old woman, was touched inappropriately by a man when she was stood next to a luggage rack.

She moved to sit down after the man had approached her but he followed and sat next to her, sexually assaulting her again. When confronted by the victim, the man left the train at Westbury station.

Investigating officer, Det Con Amy Perry, said: “The victim was very upset and in shock as a result of this incident. She has a disability which affects her mobility and meant she felt even more vulnerable in the situation.

“There were other people on the train at the time of the assault, including a female passenger who kindly checked if the victim was ok after the incident.

“I would like to speak to the man shown in the CCTV images as he may have information which could help with the investigation. If you know who he is, please contact me as soon as possible.”

Please call British Transport Police on 0800 40 50 40 or text information to 61016 quoting reference number 343 07/04/17.
