Appeal after knife-wielding man chases train passenger

Police are appealing for witnesses after a passenger was chased off a train by a knife-wielding man who threatened to stab him.

The incident happened on 2 May between Bristol Temple Meads and Westbury, between 11:10 - 11:30 BST.

As the train arrived at Bath Spa, the man threatened to stab the other man and then rummaged through his bag before the victim fell and injured himself above his right eye and fled the train, police said.

Officers have said they would like to talk to the man in the CCTV images they have released, as they believe he may have information that could help their investigation.

The British Transport Police has appealed for any witnesses to come forward.
