A MAN was assaulted and robbed in Walthamstow last night.
The 44-year-old was walking along Canning Road, near to the junction with Wellington Road when three men grabbed him from behind and one of them punched him in the face.
They then went through his pockets and took his wallet before cycling away on mountain bikes.
Two of the robbers are described as black, between 18 and 20 years old, and wearing balaclavas and black clothing.
The third robber was white, between 18 and 20 years old and also wearing a balaclava and black clothing.
Anybody with information about the robbery, which happened at about 9.55pm, should call Chingford CID on 8345 2309 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
