Dear Resident

At around 7pm on Sunday (3/3) the victim was approached by five men, believed to be aged between 18 – 30 years old, in Goodman Park. The group have grabbed the victim’s bike as he tried to ride away and one of the men has used a pole to hit him in the back.

The offenders have stolen the bike. The victim did not sustain any injuries.

There is currently no description of the offenders available.
