A dozen police officers were involved in a search for a criminal trio in central Swindon last night.

A man was approached by three men at around at around 10.30pm on Sunday, and was threatened before having £60 stolen in the scary street robbery.

A door was destroyed in the incident

At least six police vehicles were at the scene in Gladstone Street, near the Tap and Barrel pub, as other units patrolled the Broadgreen area in search of the offenders.

Despite the large police response, no one’s been arrested in connection with the incident.

“Our enquiries are continuing and anyone with information should call Wiltshire Police on 101, quoting crime reference 54200037260.

“Alternatively you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.”
