Teenage Girl kidnapped For Oyster Top-Top: Man Wanted

Police are hunting this passenger after a teenage girl was forced to top-up his Oyster card and board a tube train with him.

British Transport Police (BTP) have released this CCTV image as they continue investigating the suspected robbery and kidnapping at Waterloo station on Wednesday July 1.

The victim, aged in her late teens, was approached by a man at Waterloo station at around 2:30pm.

The man initially asked for help, but then proceeded to follow the female when she ignored him. 

He then grabbed her arm, brought the victim to a ticket machine and made her purchase a top-up for his Oyster card.

He then forced her to board a Jubilee line to Westminster Tube station, where the victim was able to alert station staff between 3:45pm and 3:50pm. 

As she did this the suspect walked away and exited the station.

Officers believe the man in the CCTV images may have information that could help their investigation.
