Police have released an image of a man following a reported incident of upskirting.

Do you recognise the man in the photo? If so, British Transport Police want to hear from you as they believe he may have information that can help with the investigation.

On May 22, a woman got off the train at Colliers Wood station and was followed by another man.

As she got on the escalator, the man who was walking behind her pointed his phone under her skirt.

The man then left the station after being challenged by the victim.

A statement from BTP says: "At 9.30am on Saturday 22 May, a woman got off a train and was followed by a man from the platform. As she walked up the escalator, the man walked behind her and pointed his phone camera up her skirt.

"The victim challenged the man, who then left the station.

"Officers believe the man in the images may have information which could help their investigation.

"If you recognise him or have any information, please contact BTP by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 360 of 23/05/21.

"Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
