The incident took place between 2.15pm and 2.30pm on Monday, October 2.

The victim, a man in his twenties, was walking from ASDA at Oakridge Park to Stantonbury via Railway walk, when he was threatened by a man with a pair of kitchen scissors, who demanded money.

The offender subsequently ran off towards the roundabout then back to the wooded area by the traffic lights next to ASDA where he again interacted with the victim who had continued walking.
