A man who allegedly threw alcohol over a staff member at a train station is wanted by police.

The suspect tried to board a DLR train at Woolwich Arsenal while holding an "open bottle of alcohol".

A staff member informed the man that drinking was banned on DLR services before he was assaulted on September 8 at around 11.30pm.

A British Transport Police statement read: "The man then got off the train and threw the contents of the bottle over the member of staff.

"Officers believe the man shown in this CCTV image may have information which could help them investigate."

If anyone has any information on the man they are asked to call 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference number 732 of 08/09/2018.
