THAMES Valley Police is appealing for witnesses after a man was robbed at knifepoint during an event in Reading last week.
Three males threatened a man in his twenties with a knife while attending Stories In The Park in Palmer Park, Wokingham Road, at around 2.30pm on Saturday, June 6.
The victim was unhurt, but had his gold chain, jacket, and phone stolen.
The first offender was described as Middle Eastern, wearing a green puffer jacket with the hood up and high neck pulled up to conceal most of his face.
The second offender was described as a Middle Eastern man of around 5ft 10ins tall, with stubble, wearing grey tracksuit bottoms and a coat.
The third offender was described as a black man of around 6ft 3ins tall, wearing a white t-shirt and grey tracksuit bottoms with shorts underneath.
Investigating officer Detective Constable Freya Renton said: “This robbery happened at a busy festival in the middle of the day so I am confident somebody witnessed it and will come forward.
“Also, if you were driving in the area around the time of the robbery and have a dash-cam, or have CCTV footage please check your recordings in case they have captured something that could support our investigation.”
Anyone with information can call 101 or make a report via the Thames Valley Police website, quoting reference number 43260291218.
