Police want to interview this man after a gay commuter ended up with deep bite 104 SHOPPING DAYS TO CHRISTMAS! wounds in his hand following an anti-gay attack on the train from Victoria. BY NIALL MCMURRAY THE VICTIM, aged 38, was coming back from Victoria just after midnight on Friday 19 September. He was forced to endure a barrage of homophobic abuse before his attacker sank his teeth into him, giving him a deep bite wound in his hand. The severity of the attack has prompted British Transport Police to issue a CCTV image of a man they want to question in connection with the incident. “This was a particularly nasty attack,” says PC Henrik Gottler. “Allegations of hate crime offences are treated very seriously by British

Transport Police, and we are eager to track down the perpetrator.” The attacker was about 5ft 8 inches tall, of medium build and was wearing a white shirt with red stripes and dark trousers. In response to offences like these, British Transport Police has recently set up a Public Protection Unit to deal specifically with hate crimes. Dedicated detectives are on hand to offer specialist care to victims. Anyone with information should contact British Transport Police on 0800 405040 or the Witness Appeal Line on 0207 3915275.
