£1000 Reward for Huntingdon Assault and Robbery

Crime-fighting charity Crimestoppers is offering a reward of up to £1,000 for information that leads to the arrest and charge of the person or persons responsible for the robbery of a man in Huntingdon [17 January 2012]

The victim, 23, was walking to work at 4.15am on Thursday 1 December along the path from Buttsgrove Way to Coneygear Road, Huntingdon.

A group of men approached, kicked and punched him and stole his wallet and mobile.

The man suffered serious but not life threatening injuries and was taken to Hinchingbrooke Hospital as a precaution, but was later discharged.

One of the men in the group had a mountain bike with him, they were all wearing dark clothing and one is described as wearing a woollen hat with a black and white scarf around his neck and face.

Someone in the area at the time distracted the robbers by shouting 'stop' to the group, which resulted in the victim being able to run away.
