British Transport Police officers investigating an assault on a member of railway staff are releasing an image filmed on a body worn camera in connection.

On Monday 18 September, at around 8.15am, a member of staff at Canterbury East Railway Station was checking passenger tickets at the barrier. 

When the member of staff asked a man to see his ticket, the man approached the member of staff in an aggressive manner, making verbal threats and then assaulted the victim, causing him to fall to the ground with injuries to his face.

The man then proceeded to run out of the station.

Officers want to speak to the man in the image who they believe may have information that could help their investigation.
