AN INVESTIGATION has been launched after a man was robbed of his mobile phone in Blackburn.
The 29-year-old man was walking up Audley Range, towards North Road, Blackburn, when he was approached by two men, who pushed him into an alley and stole his mobile phone, a silver and black Nokia 6300.
The incident happened between 1.10pm and 1.20pm on Monday 14 January 2008.
Sgt Abid Khan said: "Fortunately the man was not injured but clearly this was a frightening incident for him and I urge anyone with information to come forward."
The offenders were both described as white men, around 5ft 10ins, aged between 27 and 34.
