British Transport Police (BTP) have launched an urgent public appeal after a 14-year-old girl was sexually assaulted at Milton Keynes Central railway station between 4:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. on Saturday, May 17, 2025.
CCTV Image Released – Man Wanted as Key Witness
Police have released CCTV footage of a man seen near the scene at the time of the attack. While he is not a suspect, detectives believe he could hold critical information to crack the case.
“This was a deeply distressing incident involving a young victim. We are appealing to the public to help us identify this man so we can understand what happened,” said a BTP spokesperson.
The image is now available on the British Transport Police website as part of the urgent investigation.
Details of the Assault at Busy Transport Hub
The assault happened in a quieter section of Milton Keynes Central station, a key hub connecting Buckinghamshire to London, Birmingham, and beyond. The early morning timing meant fewer witnesses were present, complicating the investigation.
