VIOLENT robbers searched and stole cash from their victim as he lay unconscious on the floor.

Police have appealed for witnesses to Friday night's (Aug 15) robbery as the 17-year-old male victim did not see his attackers.

The teenager was walking in Bell Lane, Bury, at 10.30pm, when he was struck on the back of the head. He was knocked unconscious for a few minutes and when he came round he realised £80 had been stolen from him.

Anyone who witnessed the incident or knows the offenders is asked to contact Bury CID on 856 8150 or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
