CCTV image released following robbery in Stony Stratford

Police have released a CCTV image of a man officers would like to speak to following a robbery in Stony Stratford.

At around 11.30am on Monday 17 June the victim, a 65-year-old man, collected an amount of cash from Nationwide in Stony Stratford and placed it into a carrier bag.

He left and walked towards Wolverton Road. As he reached Wolverton Road, a white van pulled into the bus stop opposite the Chinese restaurant. A man got out of the van and walked briskly towards the victim and started shouting at him. The man grabbed hold of the carrier bag containing the cash and pulled it from the victim’s grasp.

The man then got back into the van and drove off along Wolverton Road.

The van is described as a white Peugeot Partner van with a partial registration of NU** YHO.
