Robbers steal pizzas

TWO robbers attacked a 20 year-old pizza delivery man in Cwmbran.

Robbers attacked the man, who is from the Newport area, at around 11.30pm on Friday in Rhymney Court, Thornhill and stole a dark blue bag containing two pizzas, garlic bread and some other food.

The victim was left with bruises on his hand and another bruise in-between his eyes.

The first of his attackers is described as white, six feet tall and of a medium build. He was wearing a black and white camouflage patterned hooded top.

The second man is described as white, five feet three inches tall, and of a small build.

He was aged approximately 16 to 18 years old and had light coloured hair, a pale complexion, green or blue coloured eyes and a gap between his two upper front teeth.

He was wearing a light coloured hooded top.

After the robbery, both men ran off towards Cam Court.

Detectives would like to trace a group of teenagers seen walking through Rhymney Court just before the attack as they may be able to provide vital information.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Cwmbran CID on 01633 838111 or anonymously on Crimestoppers 0800 555 111.

Disgraceful, thuggish behaviour.
These louts want "topping".

I wonder if these teens ordered to meal themselves.
I guess that will be the new deal order a meal at an address then mug the delivery boy
Just another thing to watch out for.
I stopped my car the other day as this little child ran out from behind a van.
I said you ok mate. He called me an F ing idiot.
I felt like taking the 5-year-old brat to his parent’s house, but then I guess
Listening to that child mouth he must get it from somewhere
So was it worth seeing the adults that breed such filth.
These delivery firms should ask the householder what change they need; then only carry the change of a £10 . Not going from job to job with all the takings ‘
I guess they only wanted the meal and not the cash.

That is so naive! Your comment truly reflects your age and childlike mind. People like you seem to relish on these stories where you can bring up arguments purely based on where people live. I think its time they restricted people under 20 from making pointless, mind numbingly boring petty comments.....

I live in a civilised little village on the outskirts of caerleon called Llanhennock (highest average house price in Gwent), so really I am not in a glasshouse! Most ignorant, uneducated individuals who have the audacity to comment on my postings have probably never even seen a place like it, let alone even dream of owning a propertty there! You dont find this sort of crime common here, as there is no person without wealth and indeed a sunstantial income unlike massive council housing estates such as cwmbran, currently full of jobless, unemployable thuggish criminals who will even stoop to assulting a Pizza Delivery Boy - at least the boy was working and supporting himself unlike most of the poulation of Cwmbran who rely on the likes of me to support them through the extortionate taxes I pay that get diluted to their benefits! DISCRACEFUL!

Ouch, sorry. I cannot believe I had the audacity to comment on your comment- Someone of your wealth and arrogance – although maybe you should reconsider being re-educated... your spelling is pretty poor as well as being completely naive and pathetic. And as for you, and your community supporting us through extortionate taxes *someone pass me a tissue* send my condolences. You see, for those of us who work hard (not being born with a silver spoon in our mouths) know the real values in life.
Having wealth does not make you and more superior than us common peasants! Unfortunately in every bunch of people there is always going to be a bad apple! ....... and you my friend ARE A BAD APPLE!
