Officers are appealing for help to trace three people wanted in connection with a knifepoint robbery.

The Metropolitan Police attended the home of a 15-year-old boy after it was reported he was mugged on Bromley High Street at 7.45pm on Friday, September 6.

They are reported to have brandished a knife which they held to his chest and throat before making off with his trainers, jacket, mobile phone, money and oyster card.

A photograph was taken of the victim and he was told not to report the incident to the police.

The travel pass was then used to board a bus.

Images released of the suspects show a black male wearing a durag, and two black females, one of which was carrying a crutch.

Detective Constable Ciara Riordan said: “This robbery has had a real impact on the victim’s life and he has not been able to go back to school since it happened.

She urged anyone who recognises the three people pictured to contact police on 101, quoting CAD 7617/06Sep.

Information can also be given anonymously by calling Crimestoppers, 0800 555 111.
