Thames Valley Police are appealing for witnesses after a man was robbed and attacked by two men in Addington Road.

The incident took place on Monday, September 29 at around 6:50pm.

The men attacked a Deliveroo driver before one of the men rode the victim’s electric bicycle, while the other fled on foot. Police believe they may have then got into a silver vehicle, possibly a Toyota.

The victim, a man in his twenties, sustained minor injuries to his mouth, arm and leg but did not require hospital treatment.

The offenders are both described as white men. One had a bald head and was wearing a grey t-shirt and blue trousers, while the other had a beige t-shirt and dark-coloured trousers.

Police staff investigator Natalie Baird said: “It is believed there are a number of people who have witnessed the robbery, some of whom may have filmed what happened.
