Violent Mugger Hunted By Cops


A young woman was repeatedly punched and kicked by a bag-snatcher in a violent broad-daylight mugging outside a busy West London bank.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the attempted robbery outside HSBC, Shepherds Bush Green (pictured) at 1.50pm on May 21.

The 22-year-old victim was subjected to a sustained attack during which she was punched and kicked.

She was taken to hospital suffering from facial injuries and subsequently discharged.



The suspect is described as black, aged late 20s to early 30s, and between 5' 4" and 5' 9" in height.



Officers are eager to speak with anyone who saw the assault, particularly two workmen who chased the suspect.



Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Constable Mark Breeze at the Hammersmith and Fulham Priority Crime Unit on 020 8246 2655.
