TWO people were robbed and seriously assaulted when walking near the underpass of Drakeford Drive in Wanniassa yesterday (November 27). Police-afp-cops-9720-400x266

The victims were walking at about 2pm before they were allegedly approached by four “juveniles” on their bikes who jumped off before assaulting and stealing a mobile phone and a wallet.

One of the offenders is a male described as Caucasian in his mid-teens, wearing a white shirt, dark pants, Nike shoes, with a black Adidas bum-bag and riding an orange “Giant” mountain bike.

A second male is believed to be Pacific Islander or Maori in appearance, also in his mid-teens. He was wearing a black and white shirt, black pants and riding a blue bike.

A third male is described as Caucasian, aged in his mid-teens and with curly hair. He was wearing an orange shirt, black track pants with a green stripe, a cap and was riding a BMX bike.

The forth offender was a female who is described as Pacific Islander or Maori in appearance, aged in her mid-teens with black hair. She was wearing a white shirt and black tights.

Anyone who may have witnessed the incident or has any information to contact 1800 333000, or via act.crimestoppers.com.au.
