Far-right activist Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, has reportedly left the United Kingdom just hours after a violent incident at London’s St Pancras International Station left a man unconscious and in critical condition.
British Transport Police confirmed on Sunday that the 42-year-old suspect in the assault investigation had boarded a flight out of the country in the early hours of the morning. Authorities are continuing their investigation and say they are working to bring the individual into custody for questioning.
The victim, who has not yet been identified, was found lying face down on the station concourse on the night of July 28.

In a video posted online after the incident, Robinson appeared with a cut on his forehead and claimed that he had been in a fight—with a door. He did not address the assault or the injured man directly, prompting criticism and speculation.
Robinson, a polarizing figure in UK politics, is no stranger to controversy or law enforcement scrutiny. His departure from the country has sparked further questions, as police continue their efforts to locate and question him regarding the assault.
The British Transport Police stated: “Following a report of an assault at St Pancras station last night (July 28), officers have confirmed that the suspect, a 42-year-old man from Bedfordshire, boarded a flight out of the country in the early hours of this morning. Detectives are continuing to work closely to progress the investigation and bring him into custody for questioning.”
