DO RECOGNISE THIS MAN? POLICE APPEAL FOR INFORMATION AFTER MEMBER OF RAIL STAFF ASSAULTED ^ WESTBURY

British Transport Police (BTP) officers are appealing for the public^s help to identify a man they would like to speak to in connection with an incident at Westbury railway station in Wiltshire.

Officers have today released CCTV images of a man they believe will have information which can assist the investigation.

Sergeant Scott McKechnie, investigating officer, said the incident took place at around 7.15am on Tuesday 11 October 2011.

^A male passenger entered the booking officer area of Westbury station and was asked by staff to show his ticket as he made his way towards the platforms. The passenger aggressively raised his fists towards the member of staff and swore at him repeatedly before leaving the station without travelling," Sgt McKechnie said.

^Behaviour such as this towards members of staff carrying out their duties is completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated by British Transport Police. Enquiries are ongoing and, after viewing CCTV images from the station, I would like to identify and speak to the man in these photographs as I believe he will be able to assist the investigation.^
