A MUSIC teacher has been robbed for the second time in two weeks in Darwen town centre.
Tracy Frankcom, 40, was approached shortly after 7pm yesterday just after locking up the Arietta music shop in Bridge Street.
As she got to her car, which was parked on a car park in Bath Street, she was approached by a man who had a knife.
He grabbed her and the pair struggled, during which she received a cut to her hand. The man then made off.
It is believed the same man, along with an accomplice, attacked Ms Frankcom at around 9.10pm on Wednesday, October 20.
Police have released an e-fit of a man they want to speak to in connection with the incidents.
Inspector Mark Winstanley said: “This lady has been left incredibly shaken after being targeted for the second time in two weeks and is at a complete loss as to why somebody would do this to her.
“We believe that the same person was involved in both incidents and it is really important that we catch him as soon as possible.
Anybody with any information can contact police on 08451 25 35 45 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
