Police are appealing for help to find a man after a London bus driver was racially abused.

The driver of a 314 bus had challenged a passenger after he had pushed the emergency exit button on the vehicle, in an incident on Eltham High Street, at about 12.15pm on January 12.

In response, he was racially abused and sworn at.

Officers have released a picture of a man they would like to speak to in relation to the incident.
