A SCHOOLBOY received a bloody nose when a robber threatened him with a three-inch blade and punched him in the face.
The 15-year-old boy was walking along St James Street, Walthamstow, with a teenage friend at around 5.30pm on Friday, January 16 when the robber pounced.
He asked for 10p from the boys and pulled out the black knife. He took the lad's Sony Eriksson mobile phone worth £250 and ran off in the direction of Courtney Mews.
Anyone with information should call Walthamstow police on 8529 8666.
