Police are appealing for witnesses after a reported robbery involving two 13-year-old boys on Brighton Pier earlier this year.
The incident happened on Friday, February 9, shortly before 1pm, when the boys were allegedly approached and surrounded by a group near the Horror Hotel ride. One of the victims was assaulted, and some of his possessions were stolen.
A police spokesperson said:
“This incident occurred in a relatively secluded part of Brighton Pier, but we believe members of the public may have seen what happened or noticed the group involved.
We are keen to speak with anyone who has information that could help our investigation.”
Anyone who witnessed the incident or has relevant information is urged to contact Sussex Police either online or by calling 101, quoting reference 528 of 09/02.
Alternatively, information can be reported anonymously via Crimestoppers.
