Shopper Shoulder Barged Into Bus: Woman Wanted

Police are hunting this suspect after a shopper in her sixties was injured when shoulder-barged into a bus after a Tesco's row minutes earlier.

The victim was in Tesco Express, Warwick Way, Pimlico at around 12.00pm on May 29, last year when she had a verbal exchange with the woman.

She was then barged by the woman, but left the shop uninjured.

As she walked along Warwick Way, she turned right onto Tachbrook Street Market and then left through a pathway onto Vauxhall Bridge Road.

While the victim stood at the traffic lights on Vauxhall Bridge Road outside Barclays Bank, the same woman came up and shoulder barged the victim into the path of an oncoming bus.

The victim fell forward into the passenger doors of the bus and sustained grazes and bruising to her ankles, shins and knees, a cut to the top of her head and muscle injury to her shoulders.

Detective Constable Samantha Edwards, said: “This appears to have been an unprovoked assault which left the victim very distressed.

“We have been carrying out a number of enquiries to locate the person responsible and would like to trace the woman in this CCTV image as part of our investigation.

“The victim has been deeply affected emotionally by this whole incident.”
