British Transport Police (BTP) have launched an urgent appeal, naming a man they wish to speak to in connection with a reported rape at a railway station.
Members of the public are being warned not to approach Billy Ormiston, who is understood to have connections to Coventry and north Warwickshire.
The appeal follows an incident at Nuneaton railway station on the night of 13 March, when officers were called to reports of a rape.
A section of the station was cordoned off to allow forensic inquiries to take place.
In a statement confirming that specially trained officers are continuing to support the victim, BTP appealed for information and urged anyone who spots Ormiston to dial 999.
The statement said: “Detectives investigating a rape at Nuneaton railway station in Warwickshire are releasing the name and image of a man they would like to speak to.
