Detectives from the Transit Crime Investigation Unit are seeking the public’s help to identify a man involved in a lewd act near a bus stop in Altona North last year.

The incident occurred on Wednesday, 8 October, between 3.45pm and 4.15pm at the intersection of Millers Road and Berkley Crescent. Investigators say the man performed the act in view of members of the public.

He was wearing a grey hooded jumper featuring a Neovision motif, grey track pants, and red, white and black high-top Jordan trainers.
