Bexley Police are appealing for any witnesses and information concerning a robbery that took place on Friday 14th October 2005. Police have released a CCTV image of a young man, known to be in the vicinity at the time of the incident, who they want to identify.
The robbery took place at approximatly 4:10 on the top deck of a route 401 bus at the Clock Tower, Bexleyheath Broadway.
The victim of this robbery was a 15-year old boy making his way home from school. He boarded the bus, at the clock tower and made his way to the top deck. The boy was then approached by a youth, described as black and about 17 years of age, who grabbed hold of him and took him to the rear of the bus.
The victim was then punched in the face and robbed of his mobile phone and the small change that was in his pocket.
At the time of incident the bus was full of school children making their way home.
Police would like to speak to the youth pictured in the photograph in order to assist them with their enquiries and if anyone can help with his identity they should call Bexleyheath CID on 020 8284 923 or, to remain, anonymous, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
Sean Hart, aged 19 from Erith has been sentenced to six months for an ASBO breach. Hart was in court on 28 October and was found guilty of Actual Bodily Harm and breach of an ASBO.
This is Hart’s third breach since being given an ASBO in June 2004, for his involvement in anti-social behaviour, burglary, theft and affray in and around the West Street area of Erith.
The ASBO followed several months of work by Bexley Community Safety Partnership to investigate complaints of anti-social behaviour in the area, which targeted a number of individuals.
As a result, Hart was identified as being one of a number of persons involved in serious and persistent offences. This called for robust enforcement action to combat the problems experienced by residents
Cllr Chris Ball, Chair of Bexley Community Safety Partnership and Council Leader says: “The use of ASBOs is a strong tool in our armoury to monitor the behaviour of individuals who have been identified as being involved in serious problems in the community and it is important that the Courts continue to support this with appropriate sentencing of breaches, as in this case.”
