Police hunt for man who spat on a 14-year-old girl on a Melbourne train
Police are investigating after a 14-year-old girl was spat on whilst travelling on a city-bound train last month.
Investigators have been told the girl and her friend boarded a train at Newport Railway Station at 7.23am on May 19.
A man got on the train at Footscray and stared at the girls, before approaching them.
He then verbally abused the pair, and spat at the 14-year-old.
The teenagers moved to another carriage to escape the vile behaviour.
The man involved is described as 180cm tall, unshaven, with short brown hair and was wearing a fluoro green jumper at the time.
Police have released images of a man they’d like to speak to in relation to the incident.
