At around 7pm on April 1, a man and a woman approached a couple outside a store in the Smithton Park area and threatened them.
The man was assaulted and the suspects then made off in the direction of Murray Terrace with bank cards belonging to the man.
The victim did not require medical treatment.
The first suspect, a man, is described as white, aged mid to late twenties, around 5ft 8in in height, of slim build with mid brown hair.

“We are appealing to anyone who saw what happened or know who the suspects might be to get in touch.
“We would also like to speak to anyone who has private CCTV that might help with our investigation or was driving in the area and may have captured information on dash-cam that could assist with our enquiries.”
