A TEENAGE boy was robbed at knifepoint at a Basildon skate park.
The 14 year-old was approached by two thugs in Gloucester Park sometime between 4pm and 5pm on Thursday, July 16.
One held a knife out in front of him, while the other threatened him and demanded he hand over his mobile phone.
The two suspects fled after the boy gave them his phone.
One was described as white, aged 16 or 17, skinny, and between 5ft 5ins and 5ft 7ins tall.
He wore a black hooded top, black aviator style sunglasses, black trousers and a black bandana with a white skull print, which covered the bottom part of his face.
The second suspect was white, aged 16 or 17, and between 5ft 6ins and 5ft 8ins tall.
He was muscular and wore a black hooded top, a white bandana with a black skull or cross print, which covered the bottom part of face, and a black ring on the little finger of his left hand.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Pc Deborah Williams at Basildon CID on 101, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
