POLICE have released CCTV images in an investigation into a robbery where a delivery driver was threatened with a knife.

West Yorkshire Police first launched an appeal for witnesses yesterday after a robbery in Bromley Street, in Hanging Heaton, near Batley at around 8.30am on Monday.

A delivery driver was approached by a man, who was carrying a knife, and took a parcel from him before making off in the direction of Commonside.

A spokesperson for the force said the suspect threatened the driver with the knife.

Detectives have now issued two images of suspects they would like to identify in connection with the robbery.
