Police investigating attempted robbery in Dundee release CCTV image

Police hunting for a man who tried to rob a teenage girl and an older woman have issued a CCTV image in a fresh appeal for information.

Detectives in Dundee are still investigating the attempted robbery which took place in the Forfar Road area on Wednesday, May 14.

The two women victims, aged 61 and 17-years-old, were walking together at around 10.40pm when they were approached by a man who threatened them and demanded their belongings.

Police have now released a CCTV picture of the man they want to speak to who is described as being in his mid-20s, about five feet nine inches tall and stocky.

He was wearing a dark waist-length jacket or hooded top, dark trousers and a grey or black-coloured beanie-style hat, with a white stripe around the base of it.

Police Scotland would ask for this man to come forward, or for anyone who knows who is to contact them on 101, or speak to any police officer.

Alternatively information can also be passed anonymously via the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
