Police locate trio sought but await tests before treating death as murder
Chiswick Station
May 20, 2023
British Transport Police (BTP) has now located all three men who were being sought in connection with an assault that took place at Chiswick Station.
Officers had earlier issued photographs of the trio they had wanted to speak to as part of their investigation.
The two of the men have been interviewed and released under investigation and officers said this Saturday (20 May) that they have traced the third man.
The 38-year-old victim of the attack, which took place at the station on 14 October last year at around 11:50pm, died a few months afterwards. He was pushed with force against a concrete wall resulting in him hitting his head and losing consciousness. The three men involved in the assault ran away from the scene and boarded a bus towards the centre of Chiswick.
The injured man was taken to hospital where it was found that he had a fractured skull and had suffered a bleed on the brain. In December he suffered a cardiac arrest and died in hospital in January of this year.
The police say they are awaiting further tests from the pathologist before making a decision about treating the case as a murder.
