Thames Valley Police has released CCTV images following an attempted robbery in Aylesbury.
At around 3pm on Monday 1 March the victim, a 13-year-old boy, was cycling along Great Western Street by the bus station, with a group of friends.
A man on a bike was cycling in the other direction when a disagreement occurred.
The man got off his bike and punched the victim in the face and shoulder and stamped on the victim’s bike a number of times.
