BRITISH Transport Police is appealing for witnesses after a man exposed himself on a train.
The incident happened on board the 8.26pm Manchester Victoria to Leeds service at about 9.30pm on Thursday, June 4, shortly after the train left Bradford Interchange.
PC Daniel Connelly, of BTP, said: “Unwanted sexual behaviour of any kind will be not tolerated anywhere on the rail network and we take all reports of this nature seriously.
“This clearly must have been an unpleasant and distressing experience for the passengers on board and I would urge anyone who was travelling on the train and who witnessed the incident to please come forward and speak to us.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact British Transport Police on 0800 40 50 40, or text 61016, quoting reference PSUB/B3 of 11/6/2015. Information can also be passed anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
A 27-year-old Manchester man has been arrested and bailed pending further inquiries.
