Teenager robbed by gang in Huddersfield

    A 16-year-old boy was robbed by a gang in Huddersfield.

    The incident happened between 4.10pm and 4.25pm on Tuesday 8 May on Tanyard Road in the Oakes area near to the bus stop close to Oakes Road South.

    The victim was walking along the road when he was approached by three males, one of whom threatened him with a knife.  

    The suspects then made off with the teenager’s bag and phone.

    Officers are particularly keen to trace a woman who was in her car and pulled up next to the incident. 

    A 17-year-old male was arrested on suspicion of robbery and released under investigation.
