The man being sought by police

Officers have released an image of a man they would like to trace.

The incident happened after the home leg of the League one play-off semi-final on May 13 when a steward was punched. He was not injured in the incident.

Officers are keen to speak to the man as he may be able to help police with enquiries.

Although the image is quite blurred it clearly shows what the man was wearing and police are releasing it in the hope someone may know who he is. He is believed to be a Charlton supporter.

The man or anyone who recognises him is asked to contact West Mercia Police on 101 quoting reference 608s 150518. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or at crimestoppers-uk.org
