Man Robbed Outside Home In St Leonards

A man who stepped outside his front door to get some fresh air, has been robbed in St Leonards.

It happened around 3.20am on Saturday morning (Nov 6).

The 52-year-old victim left his flat in De Cham Road, St Leonards, and was standing at the junction with adjacent Cloudesley Road when he was attacked by two men who grabbed and repeatedly punched him, stealing cash before making off.

The victim received hospital treatment for cuts and bruises to his face and leg.

Investigator Bernadette Peters said:

"This was a vicious and random attack on a resident who was simply relaxing just outside his own home.

"His assailants were both described as white, slim, aged about 18, wearing hoodys and joggers.

"If you were in the area at around that time and saw anything suspicious, or if you have any other information, please contact us either online or by calling 101, quoting serial 211 of 06/11.

"You can also contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
