A young dad robbed a stranger in Birkenhead after marching him to a cash machine.
Neil Griffiths, 27, and a friend approached the victim at 3am on a winter morning and asked him if any local pubs were open. The victim told Griffiths and the companion there were none open at the time of day.
Following this there was pushing and shoving and the victim was elbowed in the face, Liverpool Crown Court heard on Tuesday. Rebecca Smith, prosecuting, said Griffiths, who had been drinking since 5.30pm the previous day and his friend then took him to a nearby ATM and made off with the £65 he was made to withdraw.
