Bus Sex Pest Hunted For Grinding Against Females

Police hunting a bus sex pest, who rubbed himself against a teenage girl and a middle-aged woman, have released this image of their suspect.

Officers from the Metropolitan Police's Roads and Transport Policing Command (RTPC) are appealing for the public's help to identify the man.

On Wednesday, September 21, last year a 16-year-old girl was sexually assaulted at a busy bus stop in Camden Close, Bromley at around 3.20pm.

As the girl was waiting for the bus, she felt something rubbing against her back.

She initially thought it was people pushing her as the bus stop was busy however, when she turned around and saw a man rubbing his groin against her back.

The man then got on a 161 bus.

It is believed the same man carried out a similar offence on Monday, July 4.

A man boarded a route 161 bus at a bus stop on Chislehurst High Street, and stood behind a 43-year-old woman.

As the bus moved away, he pressed himself against her with his groin. She turned around and the man moved away.

The man is described as of Asian appearance, aged about fifty and approximately 5ft 5inches tall.

Officers believe the man regularly travels on buses around the Bexley and Bromley area.

Anyone with information is asked to contact PC Naomi Goodman at the RTPC via 101.
