THE hunt is on for a young dog walker who robbed a man at knife-point.

The attacker struck on Thursday, November 2, as his 24-year-old victim walked along Kirkhall Lane, Bolton.

After stopping the man he threatened him with a knife and demanded cash, forcing his victim to hand over his wallet which contained £60.

The offender, who had a black Labrador dog with him, is white, 6ft 5ins, of slim build and aged between 20 and 25.

He wore a black Nike baseball cap, cream coloured thigh-length duffle coat, dark blue jeans and scruffy white trainers.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
