Appeal for victims to come forward after man seen filming women and girls - Doncaster

Officers investigating two incidents where a man was seen filming women and young girls at Doncaster railway station are appealing for the victims and witnesses to come forward.

At around 1.45pm on Monday 16 June railway staff alerted police to a man following and filming a group of three young women on platforms one and three, despite them asking to be left alone. The group then boarded a train and left.

A short time later it was reported that a man appeared to be filming a woman and two young girls. The woman confronted the man before they too left the station.

Officers responded and arrested a 53-year-old man at the station on suspicion of a Section 4B Public Order Offence (causing intentional harassment, alarm and distress on account of sex). He was later released on bail.
