An appeal has been launched after a victim had a gold chain ripped from around their neck as they waited for a bus in Derby.
Our officers were called to the incident at 2pm on Monday 27 February in St Thomas Road, Normanton following reports of a robbery.
The victim, a man in his 60s, was approached at the bus stop and began having a conversation with another man before grabbing hold of the necklace and running away down St Thomas Road.
The suspect is described as an Asian man with short dark hair, a beard and of average build. He is between 5ft 10ins to 6ft tall and was wearing a red coloured puffer coat.
The necklace is an Indian gold chain with a Sikh symbol as a pendant. It also has a small T bar attached to it.
