Appeal after man attacked by trio on Metropolitan line train at Baker Street

The hunt is on to find three people who punched and kicked a man as he travelled on a late-night Metropolitan line train.

The 46-year-old victim, who lives in Harrow, suffered a cut to his eyebrow and bruising to his face and his glasses were broken during the attack on the westbound train between Baker Street and Harrow-on-the-hill.

After he came off the train at Harrow-on the-hill station his attackers followed him and assaulted him for a second time on the platform.

The attack took place in June 28 just after midnight but the details have been made public today as part of an appeal to trace three people caught on CCTV in connection with the assault.

“If you know who they are, or have any other information which could help, please get in touch.”
