Pervert Caught Masturbating on Train Before Assaulting Off-Duty Cop
On January 30, horror struck on the 8.39pm train from Redhill to London Bridge. In an otherwise empty carriage, a man brazenly sat opposite a woman and began touching himself, locking eyes with her while committing the sick act.
Brave Off-Duty Officer Steps In – Gets Attacked
As the disturbed perv disembarked at Coulsdon South station, an off-duty police officer confronted him. The man then lashed out, assaulting the officer who tried to detain him. After the attack, the suspect jumped over ticket barriers and fled the scene.
Thankfully, the officer was taken to hospital but suffered no serious injuries.
Suspect Tied to Multiple Public Decency Offences
Police investigations suggest the man is linked to several other acts of outraging public decency on the rail network. Authorities have released CCTV images and urge the public for help.
