Images released after man assaulted on Tube train – London

British Transport Police (BTP) officers have released images of two men they'd like to identify after a man was assaulted on a Tube train.

The incident happened at around 10.50pm on Saturday 4 July. The victim had boarded a southbound Northern Line train at Chalk Farm.

A group of people had boarded with him at the same time and two girls sat near him started speaking to him. Shortly after one of them kissed him.

Another member of the party saw this and began punching the man. He was joined by another man, and he too punched the victim.

The victim and the group left the train at Euston. The victim was assisted by station staff and went to hospital, where he was found to have sustained a broken nose as well as deep cuts to his face
