Man stabbed near evangelical church in Milton Keynes

by Will Maule

Police are appealing for witnesses after a man was cut with a knife near a church in Milton Keynes. 

Thames Valley Police say that on 13th March, a man was walking down an alleyway beside Wolverton Evangelical Church when he was approached by two men. They demanded money from him, then one pulled out a knife. The victim sustained a stab wound to his hand during the incident. Cash was also stolen from his person. 

Investigating officer Detective Constable Siobhan Jones said: “I am appealing for witnesses to this incident and anyone in the area who has CCTV or doorbell cameras."

The suspects are thought to be between 22-25-years-old and were wearing face masks. One was wearing a black jacket, according to police.

Detective Jones added:

"If you have any cameras covering the area around this incident or if you were in the area on Saturday night and have a dash-cam, please review your footage to see whether you have captured the incident or anyone matching these descriptions.

“If you have any information that could help with this investigation, please contact us using our online form or call 101, quoting reference number 43210106128.

"Alternatively, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously via their website or on 0800 555 111.
