A man had a weapon held to his throat and his wallet and phone stolen in a violent robbery.
The man was walking near the Old Goods Yard in Station Road, Marsden, at about 11.15pm on Friday when he noticed a man walking in front of him.
He was then grabbed from behind by a second suspect and something was held up to his throat.
