Man Punched Repeatedly Before His Rolex is Snatched

The victim had just got into his car when a male suspect approached him. Without warning, the thug landed multiple punches before snatching a valuable Rolex watch from the victim’s wrist.

Police Urge Witnesses to Come Forward

Detective Constable Stephen Chubb of the Met’s South Area Command pleaded for help: “I am very keen to hear from anyone who can identify the male in the picture. If you’ve been offered the watch for sale, we want to hear from you.”

“Being the victim of a violent robbery has a lasting effect that goes far beyond a loss of property – if you can help us find the person responsible, please do the right thing and get in touch.”
