Detectives are appealing for help identifying two men in connection with an attempted robbery of a teenager on board a train between Birmingham New Street and Nuneaton.
At around 8:20pm on Saturday 22 May, the victim was approached by two men who were verbally abusive and threatened him with violence if he didn’t hand over his designer jacket.
The threats and abuse continued until the victim moved carriages at Nuneaton station which is where the two men left the train.
The first man officers believe will have information to help with the case is described as a white male in his mid to late 30s, with a curly italicised tattoo on the left side of his neck. He was wearing an all-black tracksuit, the top was a sweatshirt, and he was of stocky build.
The second man is described a white male of skinny build, aged 19-20 years old who was wearing a black “Weekend Offenders” branded jacket.
Officers are keen to speak to anyone who may have witnessed the incident.
