Two men sought following fight on train between Brighton and Hove

Police investigating a fight on board a train between Brighton and Hove stations have issued images of two men they want to speak to.

A male passenger in his 20s was on board a service at around 11.50pm on Friday (December 13th) when he got into an argument with a man, leading to an altercation.

As the train arrived at Hove, a second man became involved and the fight continued onto the platform.

Paramedics attended and the victim was taken to hospital with serious injuries. He has since been discharged.

Officers believe the people in the CCTV images may have information that could help their investigation.
