Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a serious assault on a London Underground train in south London.
It comes after a man was seriously assaulted on a Victoria line service between Stockwell and Vauxhall at around 11.10am on July 10.
The man was repeatedly kicked in his legs, stomach, and arms.
The suspect has been described as South Asian in his mid-to-late twenties. He is around six-feet-tall, medium build with full black beard.
At the time of the incident, he was wearing a black baseball hat, a blue t-shirt, black shorts, and was carrying a black backpack and sling bag. He was accompanied by a woman.
BTP Constable Robert Jeavons said: “This appears to have been an entirely unprovoked attack on a man who was just going about his day. The injuries he sustained were so serious that he required surgery on his leg.
“There were a number of people inside the carriage at the time of the assault, some of whom thankfully intervened. If that was you or you saw what happened, please get in touch with us by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 166 of 10 July.”
Information can also be given to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
