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.
