Police in Cardiff are appealing for information after a paper delivery boy had his IPod stolen.
The incident happened in Kimberley Road, Penylan, Cardiff, at around 2.30pm on Sunday, May 29.
Two boys aged around 14 years old approached the 16-year-old paperboy demanding his silver IPod Touch which has the word “DOM” engraved on the back.
Detective Sergeant Dafydd Hobbs from Roath CID said: “This young man was carrying out a valuable service to the community delivering newspapers when he was threatened by two boys.
“We believe they were in the company of a girl who minutes earlier had asked the victim for the time.
“It is credit to the paperboy that he completed his round but unfortunately this meant that the incident was not reported immediately.
“For this group of young people to target this paper boy is simply cowardly and I would appeal for anyone who has any information on this incident to contact police.”
The girl is described as white, aged 14 to 15 years old, with dark hair tied in a ponytail and she was wearing a grey hooded jumper.
The two boys are both described as 5ft 5in tall, small build, around 14 years old and were possibly wearing gloves.
They were both wearing hooded top – one blue and one black.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Roath CID on 029 2052 7262 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
