Police are hoping commuters travelling to Lichfield can help them identify a man they want to speak to in connection with an assault on a train manager at Birmingham New Street.
The incident happened at around 5.55pm on June 12 and officers have now released a CCTV image in a bid to trace an individual.

“As he did so, he was struck on the head by a plastic bottle thrown by someone on the platform.
