A Nottinghamshire pensioner was robbed on his doorstep - by people he was trying to help. The 79-year-old was inside his home in Shelford Road, Radcliffe-on-Trent, when he heard a knock on the door so went to answer it.
He was greeted by a man and a woman who asked him for directions to a nearby supermarket. As he was giving them instructions of where to go, the duo grabbed the pensioner and snatched a watch from his wrist before fleeing the scene.
An investigation has since been launched into the robbery, which happened at around 7pm on Thursday (February 16). Both suspects are described as white, in their mid-20s and of slim build, with the man and woman understood to be around 6ft and 5ft 8in tall respectively.
