A man was punched in the face and had his mobile phone and bag stolen while walking near the Woden bus exchange last night.

About 8pm the man was walking on Bowes Street, Phillip when he was approached by two males who threatened him and demanded money. The offenders punched the victim in the face and stole his bag and mobile phone, then fled the scene in a silver/grey Holden Commodore which was driven by a third unidentified male.

The first offender was described as Caucasian, aged in his late 20s, about 178cm tall, with a thin build, short brown hair in the style of a crew cut with overgrown short brown facial hair. He was wearing an old oversized maroon t-shirt and dark cargo shorts.

The second offender was described as Caucasian, aged in his late 20s, about 178cm , with a solid build, short brown facial hair and was wearing a black and white black camouflage hooded jumper and a New York Yankees baseball cap with a similar black and white camouflage pattern.

Police ask anyone who was in the area at that time and may have seen people matching the description to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers website. Information can be provided anonymously.
