Police investigating an alleged rape in west London have released a CCTV image of a man they want to identify as they hunt for a suspect with a “large nose”.
The victim, a man in his 30s, was approached by another man in Hesper Mews, off Bramham Gardens, in Earl’s Court at around 12:10am on 4 October.
The two spoke for a few minutes before he was allegedly raped, a Metropolitan Police statement said.
The suspect was riding a bike with a food delivery bag on his back.
He left the scene shortly afterwards, cycling out of Hesper Mews and turning left into Bramham Gardens.
He is described as being aged in his 20s, white, with dark hair and a “distinctive large angular nose”. He was wearing all black clothing.
The victim is being supported by specialist officers.

The Metropolitan Police has now released a CCTV image of the man they wish to trace inside a nearby shop and are calling on anyone who recognises him to come forward.
Local residents or anyone who may have been in the area around the time of the alleged rape are also being asked to think carefully about whether they heard or saw anything “unusual”.
Anyone with CCTV or doorbell cameras who hasn’t already spoken to police are being asked to check them to make sure nothing of relevance has been captured.
