CCTV (South Wales Police)

Detectives are hunting two people who stabbed a man and stole his e-bike in the Leckwith area of Cardiff.

The robbery happened near McDonalds at the Capital Retail Park at around 10.10pm on Wednesday 18th September.

The pair were caught on CCTV fleeing the scene with the stolen bike, heading off in the direction of Lawrenny Avenue.

Police say the man's injuries were not life threatening, but he "desperately wants his bike back".

Detective Constable Carys Mansfield from South Wales Police said: "Fortunately the victim’s injuries are not life-threatening, but this level of violence is completely unacceptable."

"The victim desperately wants his bike back and we are appealing for anyone with information, to please come forward."

"Knife crime is falling in Cardiff and South Wales but any incident involving a knife, is one too many."

The CCTV footage shows the suspects crossing the road in front of what appears a grey Audi car.

Anyone who witnessed the attack should contact South Wales Police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111, quoting reference no. 2400313011
