Police are appealing for witnesses to a robbery in Leominster in December.
On Sunday 15 December, around 4:50pm a group of men and boys approached the victim on Castlefields and demanded he gave them money, claiming they had a knife.
The victim handed over £10 to them.
A 21-year-old man and 14-year-old boy were arrested on suspicion of threatening someone with a bladed article. They are both currently on bail.
Investigating officer, PC Matt Price said: “I understand an incident of such nature will bring concern to the community, however we believe this to be an isolated incident with no further risk to the public.
“We know the two people arrested were amongst a large group of males and will no doubt have drawn some attention from people that evening. If you witnessed the robbery or have any information that would help with our enquiries, I ask you to contact me”.
