Pair set upon by group outside Noble Park factory

POLICE are investigating after a group of four males robbed two people outside a Noble Park factory early Sunday morning. 

The pair had left Yarraman railway station about midnight and were walking down a nearby alley towards Tower Court in Noble Park, when they were set upon by the group. 

The four men — three described as Caucasians and one Sudanese — approached the pair from behind, surrounding and threatening them.

After one of the victims gave up a mobile phone, the group fled back towards the station. 

Police are still investigating.
