Woman Robbed at Knifepoint on Union Road
Police are investigating an early morning robbery in Hatton that left a woman shaken after being held at knifepoint and robbed of her belongings.
The victim reported that she was walking along Union Road around 3:00 a.m. when two young men approached her from behind. One was described as tall and slim, dressed in a red hoodie covering his face with long pants, while the other was shorter, wearing blue shorts and armed with a silver knife.
The assailants demanded her handbag, with one saying, “give me you bag,” before snatching it and fleeing the scene in an easterly direction. The stolen bag contained $340 in cash and a Samsung cellular phone, the value of which is yet to be determined.
Officers carried out searches in the area but were unable to locate the suspects. Investigations are ongoing.
