Man sought by police after tram passenger spits at conductor who asked him to buy a ticket
British Transport Police has issued an image of a man officers want to speak to after a passenger spat at a tram conductor who asked him to buy a ticket.
The incident happened on a tram at the Winson Green tram stop, which was heading from Wolverhampton towards Birmingham city centre.
At around 4.30pm on Thursday, August 10, a passenger produced an invalid ticket which led the conductor to advise that he would need to buy a new one.
The man refused and was asked to leave the tram at the next stop. However, the man spat at the conductor and then left at the tram stop.
Officers believe the man in this image may have information that could help their investigation.
