A MAN was punched to the floor by a group of thugs in a daylight robbery.
The 33 year-old was walking near the underpass at the Roundacre roundabout, in Basildon, when he was appraoched from behind by a group of men.
They punched him to the floor, before removing his earrings from his ears and stealing cash and a mobile phone from his trouser pockets.
The victim was not able to get a look at the suspects.
