Muggers attempted to steal a handbag from a young woman as she walked down a Norwich street.

The attack on the 25-year-old happened as she walked down Duke Street, near the St Crispins roundabout, at about 1pm on Wednesday (February 29).

A group of men approached her and one of them pushed her to the floor. The group tried to snatch her handbag, but fled empty-handed.

Any witnesses should call Det Con Rachel Elliott at Norwich CID on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
