Arrests following knifepoint robbery in Dudley

Police arrested two teenagers following a knifepoint robbery in Dudley on Wednesday after they were alerted to a bike being taken from a man in Greenfields Road, Kingswinford, at just after midday.

The suspects fled in a vehicle which was later spotted by traffic officers at around 4.30pm.

The car was brought to a stop in Copse Road, Netherton, and the occupants tried to run off. However, two 17-year-old boys were detained in the area shortly afterwards.

A search of the vehicle then led to a knife and wraps of cannabis being recovered. The teenagers have both been arrested on suspicion of robbery, and one of them was also detained in relation to having a knife and drugs.

They both remain in custody for questioning.

Police are continuing to ask for anyone with information about the robbery, particularly anyone with CCTV, to contact them.
