Mum robbed in park walk

A WOMAN pushing her baby through a Sheffield park in a pram was robbed by a man who threatened her and grabbed her purse.

The 20-year-old was walking through Meersbrook Park with her 14-week-old son when she was approached from behind by the robber, who then ran off in the direction of Cliffe Field Road.

She escaped unhurt but was left 'shaken' by her ordeal.

The robber was white, aged in his late 20s, around 6ft tall and skinny, with a sunken face, prominent cheekbones and a pale complexion.
