Police in Birmingham are searching for a man who stole a bicycle at knifepoint from a delivery rider.
The suspect threatened to stab the cyclist before stealing his bike outside a branch of McDonald’s on Belchers Lane, Bordesley Green, just before Christmas, reports Birmingham Live.
The theft took place on 18 December and West Midlands Police have now released CCTV images of a man they wish to speak to in connection with the crime.
Police say that the man, who was wearing a padded black jacket, grey sweatpants, and black and white trainers, told the food delivery cyclist that he would stab him unless he gave up his bike.
A spokesperson for West Midlands Police said: “We want to speak to this man after a Just Eat delivery driver had his bike stolen outside McDonald’s, Bordesley Green.
“It happened on December 18 at around 9pm. The suspect threatened to stab the delivery driver unless he gave over his bike – a black, blue and grey Carrera Vengeance.
“He was wearing a black padded-style jacket, with his hood up, grey joggers and Nike Air Max trainers.
“If you recognise the person in the CCTV images, please get in touch.”

It'd be great if they gave some indication of peak times when people are booking. It benefits everyone if they don't all turn up at once.
