THIEVES robbed a man's wallet and mobile phone by threatening to knife him.

The man was walking along Bowerdean Road, High Wyc-ombe, around 2pm on Wednesday, January 4, when the robbers came up to him.

They told him to hand over his wallet and phone or else they would use a knife.

The man did as they said and handed over his possessions to the thieves who then walked away, leaving the man unha-rmed. Detectives are now appealing for witnesses to the robbery.

Investigating officer, detective sergeant Russ Murden, of High Wycombe CID, said: "The aggrieved in this incident did exactly the right thing by not arguing and simply handing over the items demanded, then reporting the crime to us and cancelling any cards that were in the wallet."

The robbers were Asian, in their mid twenties, and were wearing dark clothing. One of them was 5ft 11ins; the other was around 6ft. Both of then were of a medium build.

Anyone who may have witnessed the incident, is asked to contact Det Sgt Murden on 0845 8 505 505 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111
