A tube train passenger suffered a fractured skull and cheekbone when he was punched and kicked unconscious and had multiple teeth knocked out.

The male victim got into a row with a group of people onboard an Underground train in Central London about a woman singing and dancing in the carriage.

British Transport Police (BTP) have released these images as they appeal to the public for assistance in identifying the suspects they believe were involved.

They are treating the incident at Barbican Underground station as a serious assault.

At just after midnight on Monday, July 12 a row began about the signing and dancing passenger between the victim and the group.

As the victim got off the train a man from the group charged at him and punched him repeatedly in the head.

He fell to the floor and lost consciousness.

The rest of the group then kicked him as he lay on the floor.

As a result of the attack the victim suffered a fractured skull, fractured cheekbone and had multiple teeth knocked out.

Officers believe the people in the image may have information which could help their investigation.
