A frail pensioner was left injured when a drug addict shoved her into a wall in an attempt to steal from her at a cashpoint.
The 70-year-old went to take some money out from the ATM at a Co-op in Gateshead when she noticed mask-wearing Gordon Simpson loitering with another man.
She asked if they were using the machine and when they said they weren't they moved but were still close enough to make her feel uncomfortable.
