Police hunt man who ‘exposed himself’ to girl, 12, on west London bus

Police are hunting a pervert who exposed himself to a 12-year-old girl at the back of a bus in west London.

The man, aged between 30 and 40 years, boarded the Route 94 bus at Holland Park at around 4.30pm on Friday, 25 November last year. He made his way to the back of the bus, which was heading towards Notting Hill Gate, and sat opposite the girl, police said.

He is then alleged to have put his hand down the front of his jeans and exposed himself to the horrified child. Extremely upset by the incident, the girl fled the bus at the first possible stop and rushed home to tell her parents, who contacted the police.

Detectives have now released an image of a man they wish to question in connection to the alleged sexual assault.

He has short, dark thinning hair and was wearing a dark jacket at the time.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Constable Cara Newton on 07766 248 387 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
