Creepy Stalker Wanted By Police

Police are hunting this stalking suspect after a woman in her thirties was followed in Croydon.

Detectives from the borough have issued CCTV footage of a man they wish to identify and speak to in connection with the incident.

On Wednesday, March 9, police were approached by the concerned woman at around 5.00pm to reports of a man watching her.

Earlier that day fellow-customers at a town centre coffee shop told her the suspect had been staring at her for fifteen minutes and they were concerned for her safety.

The same man was seen by the victim standing at a bus stop on Brighton Road and was staring at her closely, making her feel uncomfortable.

The man is described as a slim Eastern European, aged in his early twenties, 5ft 11ins tall, with blond hair, very pale complexion and dry skin.

He was wearing a shiny plain black leather hooded jacket with a zip at the front.

He walked with a slight hunch in his shoulders.

Police are keen to hear from anyone who may recognise the man shown on CCTV.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact police on 020 3649 0115 or 101 quoting reference number 206901, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
