A driver was robbed at gunpoint outside his own home in broad daylight.
The victim was getting out of his car when was approached by a man who brandished what is thought to be a handgun.
The terrifying incident, which happened on North Street in Lockwood on Tuesday morning, saw the victim hand over £1,000 cash.
The robber demanded money and the man handed over his bag which contained the cash as well as a mobile phone.
A second man was standing nearby as a look out and both suspects ran off through a garden on North Street.
Police are urging anyone who may have witnessed the attack, which took place between 11.30am and 11.45am, to come forward.
