Officers investigating a robbery in Cheshunt are appealing for information and witnesses.

It happened in Dig Dag Hill Park between 8.30pm and 9pm on Tuesday, December 19.

The victim, a 14-year-old boy, was walking through the park with a friend, also 14, when he was approached by two teenage boys from the direction of the tennis courts.

They demanded he hand over his mobile phone, an iPhone 6, which he did as he felt threatened. The two boys have then walked off.

The offenders are described as black and aged around 16 years old. They were wearing dark clothing with either scarves or ski masks covering their faces.

The victim and his friend were unharmed during the incident.
