Appeal for potential witnesses as officers investigate attempted robbery in Kirk Hallam

CCTV has been released by officers of potential witnesses to an attempted robbery in Kirk Hallam.

We were called to reports that a child had been approached by a man in Nutbrook Crescent, close to the junctions of Wirksworth Road and St Norbert Drive in Kirk Hallam at around 3.40pm on Monday 14 Oct.

The boy told officers that the man had attempted to grab his bag – but that he had not touched the boy’s bag and that the man had not said anything to him.

The man got back into a car, described as a green 4x4 style vehicle which was being driven by another man, before driving off down Dallimore Road.

The people pictured were seen on CCTV in the area at the time of the incident. All are being treated as witnesses.
