A teenager was punched in the face during a robbery in Wallingford.

Police said the 17-year-old boy was walking along Station Road, at the junction with Charter Way, when a white 'old-style' Ford Fiesta pulled up alongside him at about 6.10pm on Friday.

A man got out of the rear of the vehicle, which was carrying three people, and walked towards the victim, punching him in the face, before demanding he empty his pockets.

The victim handed over his mobile phone and the offender got back into the car, which then drove off.

The man is described as white, in his mid-twenties, about 6ft with a skinny build.
