Police seek help over Sunshine NightRider bus assault

Police are calling for information after a man was assaulted and robbed on a NightRider bus in Sunshine on November 17 last year.

A fellow commuter allegedly grabbed a phone from the man’s hand when the bus stopped on Durham Road around 4.30am.

A struggle began and the man punched the victim to the head, causing him to let go of his phone before the offender ran towards Sun Crescent with four other men.

Police have released an image of a man whom they believe may be able to assist them in their enquiries.

He is described as African in appearance, aged in his mid 20s, around 185 centimetres with a slim build, short black hair and was wearing a white long sleeved shirt, jeans and white shoes.
