POLICE have issued a CCTV image of a man wanted in connection with several robberies, including an attack on an elderly man that left him with broken ribs and bruising.

The incident happened in St James Street in Gloucester in the early hours of Monday 3 August.

The 74-year-old victim, from Gloucester, had just used the cashpoint at Sainsburys Local and was outside Antig Engineering Property when he was grabbed and pushed over before being punched and kicked in the head, body and legs.

The robber then left with the victim's wallet, containing £120.

Following a thorough investigation, officers have linked the man to two other robberies and are now turning to the public for help to identify him.

Gloucestershire police have asked for anyone that might recognise the man to call 101 and quote incident 10 of 3 August.
