POLICE have released CCTV images of a trio of violent robbers after a pedestrian was punched to the ground for his bank card.

The 27-year-old victim was walking through a park close to Cranbrook Street, Clarksfield, when the thugs struck.

The raiders rifled through his pockets and took the man’s bag — which had his bank card inside — before fleeing towards Somerset Street.

The card was used half-an-hour later at a cash machine at TNA Brothers in Abbeyhills Road where £300 was withdrawn. Anyone with information on the incident which happened on Saturday, June 22, at 8pm, should call police on 0161-856 8955 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
