Knifepoint robbery in Waterside

Yesterday evening around 10:15pm a man and woman were walking along Heather Road in Fawley. They were then approached by four or five unknown males.

The males separated the couple and took the man around the corner. At knifepoint, they then assaulted him and stole a quantity of cash.  

The female was verbally threatened by the group during the ordeal.  Two of the men fled the scene towards the skate park at Gang Warily.  

Having attended the scene, the police have successfully arrested three teens. Two 16 year olds from Fawley and Blackfield respectively, as well as one 18 year old from Hythe have all been arrested on suspicion of robbery.

The suspects remain in custody at this time, but if you have any information that can help the police with their enquiries, please call 101.
