Attacker Described as Asian
Police in Birmingham are appealing for help in tracing a man who assaulted and robbed a woman as she walked in Moseley.
The woman, aged 50, was walking along Wake Green Road at around 2.25pm Tuesday 10 June, when she was grabbed around the neck from behind by a man and pulled to the ground.
He then rifled through her handbag and stole her phone before running off.
The attacker is described as Asian, 30-40, slim with straight black hair, stubble and wearing jeans and a black jacket with either a hood or a hat.
DC Michelle Beasley from Stechford CID said: ” This was a nasty attack on a woman on her own in broad daylight. Police know there were numerous cars driving past at the time who may have seen what happened and I would appeal for anyone who saw this or who has information to call us on 101.”
