Police say they need to trace a man with a “large nose” after a young woman was sexually assaulted on a night bus.

The 19-year-old victim was assaulted while travelling on a route N47 bus in Lewisham in the early hours of Sunday, August 16, police said.

Detectives have now released CCTV of a man they need to trace after the alleged incident.

A spokesman for the Met said: “The suspect is described as possibly of Eastern European appearance, with a large nose, wearing a black leather jacket, light-coloured shirt, and black jeans.

“Unwanted sexual behaviour on the transport network is not tolerated and all sexual offences are taken very seriously."

Anyone with information is asked to contact PC Neil Webb on 020 3054 6712 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111, quoting reference 187893.
