Dawn robbery at knifepoint

A MAN was robbed at knifepoint in a dawn attack in Dandenong on 3 February.
Police last week released an image of a man they believe could assist with their inquiries.
The robber approached the victim as he walked along Cleeland Street at 6am.
He demanded cash, grabbed and broke a silver chain off the victim’s neck, snatched the victim’s wallet out of his pocket and ran onto Olive Street.
The man police are looking for is described as Caucasian and about 160 centimetres tall with brown shaved hair, an olive complexion and bad teeth. He was wearing a white, long-sleeved top and grey shorts.
