A man making his way home from London was attacked at Surbiton station.

The victim, a 33-year-old from Weybridge, stepped off his train at Surbiton on Friday, January 27, to allow other passengers off.

A man punched him in the face and floored him as he did so, close to the stairs at platform three.

The assault, on the Waterloo to West Byfleet service, happened at about 7.15pm and left the victim with a broken nose and swelling to the face.

Detective Constable Tony Burman, from British Transport Police (BTP), said: “This appears to have been a completely unprovoked attack and we are determined to find the person responsible.”

Police are looking for a white man, about 5ft 11in, who was wearing a jacket, shirt and trousers.
