A young girl walking home last Monday (30th November) at 6pm had her handbag snatched off her shoulder by two young men wearing hoodies.
The yobs approached her on Westmorland Way and then ran off down Faulkner Road with her bag, described as a “Jack Wills” in pink and navy blue.
Sophie Atkinson, aged 17, was quite shook up and called the Police who are checking nearby CCTV cameras for clues to the identity of the thieves.
