At about 3pm on Sunday, January 4, a man on horseback rode into the
booking hall and headed towards the platforms.
Detective Constable Rod Harbron, leading the investigation, said: “When
challenged by a member of station staff, he racially abused them and
threatened to assault them with a riding crop.”
The 32-year-old staff member called the police. British Transport Police has released the image in an attempt to identify a man they believe will be able to assist their investigation. DC Harbron added: “A busy railway station is no place for horses and rail operators have every right to refuse access to people with animals under the railway bylaws.
"The member of staff was just doing their job and racial abuse and threats will not be tolerated. Who is the man on the pony? If you recognize him, please get in touch.”
