Police Appeal After Man Robbed Of Vehicle

    Police are appealing for information after a man had his car stolen in a robbery in Halifax

    Halifax CID would like to speak to anyone who witnessed the incident which took place at about 7.30pm on Boothtown Road, near Iona Street. 

    It occurred after the victim pulled up outside an off licence in his silver Toyota Yaris and got out. 

    When on the street he was approached from behind by two men, one of whom grabbed him while the other made for his car keys. 

    Fearing he would be injured, the victim gave his keys to them. The men then made off in the vehicle. The car was later recovered on Bradford Old Road, Queensbury, Bradford. 

    Anyone who saw the robbery or the car being abandoned on Bradford Old Road is asked to contact DC Craig Aubrey at Halifax CID on 101. 

    Information can also be given, in confidence, to the independent Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111.
