We are appealing for information following a knife-point robbery in Leighton Buzzard.
On Tuesday (1 February) at around 9.10pm, two people were approached in Parsons Recreation Ground by two men.
The men threated them with a knife before punching them and making off with their bags, money, cards and phones. One of the men is described as around 5”11, slim and was wearing a navy tracksuit. The other man is described at around 5”10, slim and was wearing grey tracksuit jumper, black puffer style jacket and red gloves.
PC Emma Janes, investigating the incident, said: “This was a brazen robbery which has left the victims understandably shaken and concerned.
“We are appealing for anyone who may have been in the area at the time, and witnessed the incident, or has dash cam footage that could help us identify these suspects.”
