The incident happened around 7.30pm on the cycle path near to West Bridgend in the town. The man was allegedly attacked by three men who then stole £80 cash from him.

After a ‘positive line of enquiry’ police traced and arrested two men aged 49 and 24 – they have since been charged with assault and robbery after appearing at court last Wednesday (April 16).

Police say they are continuing their investigations to trace the third man.

Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
