Police in Huddersfield are appealing for witnesses after a 58-year-old woman was victim of a robbery in the town centre.
The incident happened on 31 March at around 5:00am at the junction of Queen Street and Colne Road in Huddersfield.
The female victim was walking to catch a bus to go to work and a suspect walks past her, then immediately turns round to grab her handbag.

"Anyone who witnessed this incident, or saw this man in the area on 31 March, is asked to contact myself via 101 quoting reference 13160137386."
