A woman in her 50s has been pushed to the ground and had her money stolen at a cash machine in Cliftonville.
Between 8.45am and 10.45am on Friday (March 29) the victim, in her 50s, withdrew cash from the machine outside a shop in Northdown Road.
She was approached by a man who asked if he could borrow some money. The victim refused but the suspect grabbed around £60 in cash from her hand and pushed her to the ground. He ran away in the direction of Palm Bay.
The man was described as white, large build, mid-20s, 5ft 6ins tall and was wearing a grey hooded top, white trainers and ripped jeans. He had an earring in his right ear and was carrying a black bag.
Detectives investigating the incident would ask any witnesses or anyone with information to come forward by calling 01843 222289 quoting reference 46/60387/19.
Hope the scumbag dies. How many police officers have you seen anywhere in Thanet let alone in Northdown Rd. Give Mr. Gale a call and ask him what he thinks. Don’t bother, he’ll just spurt out the same old bullshit about how they’ve had to save money as the last Labour government had left us in debt having spent all that money building schools and hospitals, something the tories absolutely abhor, using tax payers money to provide education and care to us plebes, when there’s all those big corporations desperate for a tax break so they pay their directors massive salaries.
Looks like the country have finally got the message and will have this lot out in their ears soon. Good riddance.
