Bracknell

Detectives investigating the robbery of a 60-year-old man in Bracknell last week are appealing for witnesses.

At about 1.30am on Monday 6 October, the man was walking in an alleyway near Vandyke, Great Hollands, Bracknell when he was approached from behind by two men who stole cash from him and pushed him over.

The man sustained a cut to his head which required hospital treatment.

One of the Bracknell assailants is white, 18 to 20 years old, 5ft 7ins and stocky. He has dark hair, cut in a pudding basin style, and was wearing a grey scarf, which covered the lower part of his face, a grey anorak and dark loose-fitting trousers. He spoke with an English accent.

The Bracknell other assailant is white, 18 to 25 years old and slimmer than the first man. He has short dark hair and was wearing a grey anorak, dark jeans and a fawn coloured scarf covering his face.
