Bad Penny: Coin Drop Predator Molests Female Train Passenger

Up To No Hood: Suspect

A female train passenger was followed by an unknown male and molested when he bent down to pick up a coin near her feet.

The victim was approached by the man at approximately 9.20pm on Wednesday, September 21 on the platform of
Windsor & Eton Riverside station, Berkshire.

He began chatting with her and they both boarded a train travelling towards Staines.

The male deliberately sat opposite the woman at a table seat, continuously staring at her before getting up and walking to the next carriage.

He then returned to where the woman was sitting and started peering under the table at her legs and up her skirt.

As they approached Staines, the victim heard a coin drop on the floor. 

The man bent down to pick it up and sexually assaulted the victim, before leaving the train.

British Transport Police officers believe the man in the CCTV image may have information which could help their investigation.
