An 89-year-old man was pushed and robbed shortly after he left a cash machine.

Detectives are investigating the robbery which happened in Shenley Road, Borehamwood at around 12.20pm on Friday May 6.

Police say a man had withdrawn cash from his bank account and placed it in his back pocket. As he was walking back to his car, he was pushed and the money was stolen. He suffered a minor injury.

As part of enquiries into the incident, police have issued CCTV images of two people they would like to speak to.

Detective Constable Helen Osborne, who is investigating, said: “This was a despicable incident which targeted an elderly man in broad daylight. The victim suffered a slight injury during the incident, which has understandably left them very shaken.

“As part of our ongoing enquiries, we’re keen to speak with the people pictured as we believe they were in the area at the time and may have information to assist the investigation. If you recognise them, please get in touch.”

Anyone with information is asked to email helen.osborne@herts.police.uk or call 101 quoting crime reference 41/35562/22.
