Images released after unprovoked assault at Tube station - North West London

British Transport Police (BTP) detectives have released images of three people they would like to speak to after a man was injured in an unprovoked attack at Colindale Underground station.

The incident happened at around 5.50pm on Monday 25 May. The victim was looking at a map on the Tube platform to plan his journey when a train arrived and a group of youths got off.

One of the group kicked the victim's heel as he passed them and, when he challenged them, the situation escalated with the group punching and kicking the victim.

They then all left the station while members of the public administered first aid to the victim on platform. He went to hospital and was found to have suffered a broken nose and broken ribs.

Officers were called and responded immediately, arresting four people – three girls and a boy, all aged 15 – on suspicion of Grievous Bodily Harm. They all currently remain on police bail.

They are now releasing images of three people they would like to speak to. Anyone who recognises them is asked to text BTP on 61016, or call 0800 40 50 40, using the reference 563 of 25 May.

Information can be given anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
