We are appealing for witnesses following a robbery on The Mary Rose Street in Portsmouth at the weekend.

One of the offenders then rode away on the bike, with the second person running behind him.

They then went past Tesco Express and the train station to Edinburgh Road and were last seen travelling in the direction of Unicorn Road.
