Bus Pervert: CCTV Image Released


Police have released this CCTV image of a bus pervert, who played with himself while sitting next to a teenage girl.
The Metropolitan Police's Safer Transport Command Sexual Offences Team hope the suspect can be identified and arrested.
He deliberately sat next to the 19 year-old after boarding the 358 bus, which was travelling between Orpington and Penge on May 7.
The man began touching himself indecently and the teen got off the bus and contacted the police.
The suspect is described as a scruffy black man, aged between 30-40 years, wearing dark tracksuit bottoms, a dark jacket and Nike trainers.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Detective Constable Anna Deighton on 020 7421 1074 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.


DC Deighton said: "I would like to reassure passengers that these types of incidents are rare.
“We do not tolerate unwanted sexual behaviour on the transport network and we take all sexual offences very seriously.


"If someone has made you feel uncomfortable, for example touched you in an inappropriate manner, please tell the police or a member of our staff.
“It will help them to not only target the perpetrator, but also help prevent it happening to someone else."
