Police hunt serial flasher who performed sex acts in front of four women on London Underground

Police are hunting a flasher who has exposed himself and masturbated in front of a number of women on the London Underground.

The spate of sex offences began around 6.30am on Thursday, August 31, when a man exposed himself and masturbated in front of a woman on a tube from Brixton, before leaving the service at Stockwell station.

Around 20 minutes later that same morning the man reboarded the service to Brixton and again exposed himself and masturbated while standing next to another woman.

On Tuesday, September 5 a woman boarded the underground at Brixton around 6.20am where a man was already on board and masturbating.

She challenged him about his behaviour and he stopped.

On Sunday, September 10 a woman entered Golders Green underground station, followed by a man who then stood next to her on the platform and masturbated at her.

“Officers believe the man in the image may have information which could help their investigation,” said a Britsh Transport Police spokesperson, releasing a CCTV image on Monday and urging anyone who recognises the man pictured to get in touch.

Anyone who recognises him is asked to contact British Transport Police by texting 61016 or by calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference number 457 of 31 August.
