POLICE have issued a CD-fit of a man they are seeking in connection with a street robbery in north Watford.

The robbery occurred about 8.50pm on Friday, October 12, when a 29-year-old man was approached from behind by two men while walking in Rhodes Way.

The first offender pushed the victim into a wall and grabbed his bag from his shoulder. The bag, which contained a laptop computer worth about £1,000, was then passed to a second offender and the pair ran off in different directions.

The first offender was black, about 6ft tall, of athletic build with short hair with lines possibly shaved into it.

The seconder offender, who is the subject of the CD-fit, was described as Asian or of mixed race, with short hair, which had lines shaved into it. He had distinctive facial hair worn in a thin beard, moustache and sideburns.
