A 15-year-old schoolboy was robbed of his bank card, cash and a bicycle in Aylesbury last month.

At approximately 9pm on June 22, the 15-year-old was cycling in the green area between Buckingham Park and the Watermead estates when he was approached by the two boys.

Initially the boys blocked the victim’s path, but eventually he was able to cycle past. The pair then followed the victim and one told him to empty his pockets.

The victim got off his bike and ran towards the A413. As he was running, he slipped over and one of the boys forced open his clenched fist, taking his bank card and a £10 note. The boys then left.

When the 15-year-old victim returned to where he had left his bike, he discovered it had also been stolen. The stolen bike is a black Apollo Gradient bicycle with two pink stripes on the saddle.

Investigating officer Detective Sergeant Bruce Wilson, based at Aylesbury police station, said: “I am appealing for anyone who may have witnessed this incident or who may have any information about where the stolen bike is now.

“This was a very upsetting incident for the victim, and I am keen to hear from anyone who can help with this investigation.
