Woman attacked and robbed in a car park in Hyde, Greater Manchester

    A woman was attacked and robbed in a car park in Greater Manchester.

    At around 4.50pm on Thursday 11 May 2017, a 53-year-old woman got into her car in a car park on Chapel Street, when a black Ford Galaxy parked behind her, blocking her in.

    Three men got out of the Ford and demanded that the woman opened her car door. She refused and sounded the horn in an attempt to summon help, but one of the men smashed the window and tried to grab her watch, and hit her on the head.

    Another of the men approached the passenger side window and reached in and stole her handbag containing jewellery, an iPad and her purse.

    All three offenders then got back into the Ford Galaxy and drove off down Oldham Street, towards the town centre.

    Police are appealing for any witnesses to come forward.
