Teenager hospitalised after attack at Tube station by women
Police are looking for three women after a teenager was attacked at a Tube station and had to be taken to hospital.
On August 27, at around 1.30pm, a 16-year-old victim entered Bermondsey station in Jamaica Road and walked towards the lift.
While in the lift, she was joined by three women with a child’s buggy. On leaving the lift, the victim walked towards the eastbound platform and whilst waiting she was approached by one of the females from the lift and was assaulted.
The victim was then pulled to the floor and was assaulted again by a second woman from the lift. All the three females then made their way to the westbound platform and left the station onboard a train.
The victim was left with injuries that were treated at hospital.
British Transport Police (BTP) have issued CCTV images of women they would like to speak with connection to the attack.
A spokesman for BTP said: “Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact BTP by calling 0800 40 50 40 or texting 61016, with reference 2300100555.
