Appeal for witnesses after two men are robbed in Long Eaton

We are appealing for information after two men were robbed in the street in Long Eaton.

The incident happened close to the mini roundabout at the junction of Meadow Lane and Main Street at about 7.15pm on Wednesday 12 March.

Two men were walking down the street when a black BMW – believed to be an X3 model – pulled up close to them.

Two men then got out of the car and approached the victims before stealing holdalls from them containing tools.

The suspects then got back into the car and drove away along Main Street.

Officers have carried out extensive enquiries into the robbery and we are now asking for the public’s help to trace those responsible.

Any witnesses or anyone who has information in relation to the incident, or who knows who the offenders are, can you please get in touch with us.

We are particularly interested in hearing from anyone who has CCTV or dashcam footage that covers the area where the incident took place and has not already spoken with officers to please come forward. 

The suspects are described as Black men, aged in their mid-20s.

One was around 6ft tall, with a medium build and was wearing a dark beanie hat, black coat, dark joggers and trainers.

The other man had a slim build and was wearing dark clothing.
