A serial flasher who exposes himself to passengers on board commuter trains is being hunted.
The pervert has strick at least three times on Thameslink trains between Sussex and Bedford, and in Kent.
Police have released CCTV images of the suspect, a young black man wearing a parka-style coat.
A British Transport Police (BTP) spokesman said: “Detectives investigating a series of exposure incidents on board Thameslink trains between Sussex, Kent and Bedford are today releasing CCTV images in connection.
“The three incidents happened during the summer.
“The first was on board a service between Blackfriars and Horley station, the second on a train between East Croydon and Bedford, and the third incident happened on a Bromley South to Otford Time service.
“In each incident, a man was seen to expose and touch himself inappropriately in front of passengers. It is now believed that these incidents are linked.”
He added: “Officers suspect that the man shown in this CCTV image may have information which could help them investigate.”
Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
