Woman wanted after assault at Waterloo Tube station which left victim in hospital for days
The British Transport Police (BTP) have released an image of a woman they want to speak to after an assault at Waterloo Tube station in February.
The incident took place on escalators at Waterloo Tube station at around 7.40pm on February 13.
A person was seen shouting on a Jubilee line train before getting off at Waterloo and heading towards the escalators.
Upon reaching the escalator, the person pulled down a six-foot poster stand, causing it to fall on to the victim and land on their ankle.
The victim needed an operation and spent several days in hospital as a result.
Officers believe the woman in the image may have information that could help with their investigation.
A spokesman for the BTP said: “Anyone who recognises the woman in the image is asked to contact the BTP by texting 61016 or by calling 0800 40 50 40, quoting reference 515 of 13 February 2024.
“Alternatively, you can contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.”
