A BOY had his bike snatched by a thug who jumped out of a bush and knocked him off it as he cycled by.
The 14-year-old was riding along a gravel path, between Rock Lane and Queensbury Way, Widnes, at around 9.30pm on Friday when his attacker struck.
The thief, who was wearing black tracksuit bottoms and a grey hooded top, jumped onto the mountain bike and sped off in the direction of Queensbury Way where he was joined by another boy riding a BMX.
The missing bike is a gold coloured GT Chucker. Both offenders were white, tall and slim and aged 16-17-years.
