Tube passengers tackle naked man who flashed children
Credit: X/@CrimeLdn Tube passengers tackled a naked man who exposed himself in front of children in a busy carriage. Footage posted online shows a man dropping his trousers on a Hammersmith and City line train at around 3.30pm on Thursday. When challenged by passengers on the eastbound train at Upton Park station, the man began shouting, repeatedly telling them to 'f--- off'. He was told: 'What do you mean f--- off? You need to get off the f---ing train. Now. There are kids on here.' The man continued to shout and wave his belt as more commuters stepped in and detained the man. A fight appeared to break out as the group punched and kicked him to the floor of the carriage. He could then be seen with his hands forced behind his back and was eventually thrown off the train by a group of men. A photograph showed him being pinned to the ground on the platform. Several passengers then waited with him on the platform at East Ham station for more help to arrive. British Transport Police said the suspect had been detained under the Mental Health Act. A spokesman said: 'Officers were called to reports of a man exposing himself on the District Line at East Ham Underground station. 'The man had been assaulted by a number of other passengers and was initially arrested by an off duty officer, before being detained under the Mental Health Act and taken to hospital, where he remains. An investigation into the incident is ongoing.' Solve the daily Crossword
