Police investigating the homophobic stabbing of two men outside a gay club have released new images of the suspect in the attack.
The pictures were taken from a CCTV camera in a route 50 bus in Thornton Heath, south London, at around 8.30pm on Sunday, just under two hours before the victims were hurt.
Two men, one aged in their 20s and the other in their 30s, were outside the Two Brewers in Clapham High Street at around 10.15pm when they were stabbed in an unprovoked attack that is being treated as a hate crime.
“I would urge people to look at these images – do you know this man? Do you recognise the clothes he is wearing?
“If you can help identify him then please get in touch.”
The two victims were taken to hospital for treatment but have since been discharged.
“You can contact me directly for advice and support, or to assist this investigation.”
