QUOTE:
A man was pushed and threatened in broad daylight as he walked
along a busy road in Macclesfield. Sometime between 1.15pm and 1.40pm
on Monday (February 10) a man
was pushing his bicycle along Chester Road, near the junction of
Ivy Road, when an unknown male approached him. The male pushed the
victim before demanding money.

A passer-by intervened and the suspect fled the scene.

The male offender is described as white, of slim build and was
wearing a black hooded top, black joggers and had a black
rucksack with coloured markings. Officers are now appealing for
anyone who may have witnessed the
incident to come forward. Detective Constable Andy Cole, of
Macclesfield Local Policing
Unit, said: "We are keen to track down this offender and bring
him to justice. "The outcome of this incident could have been a lot
worse.

"I am keen to hear from anyone who may have been driving around
the Chester Road, Ivy Road area of Macclesfield on Monday and may
have caught dashcam footage of the suspect. "I also want anyone who
witnessed the incident or may know who
the offender is to come forward." Anyone with information or dashcam
footage is asked to call
Cheshire police on 101 quoting IML 633793 or report via

Isn't it time pedestrians had number plates so scum like this can
be traced. Licences and 3rd party insurance would also help.


But as we are so frequently told, a person with a bicycle is not a
cyclist, so this has nothing to do with this group, Simon should
post it to a 'pedestrian' group.

I have 'flagged' tm. the post as OT


Are you under the impression anyone cares what you 'think'?


It would seem that you do! aaah


Simon has gone of his rocker............... again.

Fully agree - they should have hi-vis jacket with their unique ID number on it and also a walking helmet for falls on ice or uneven flagstones.


If a pedestrian falls it is ,obviously, a cyclists fault. If the cyclist was wearing a helmet the pedestrian would not have fallen. If bicycles were subject to annual safety checks no pedestrians would be killed by motor vehicles. If cyclists had to obey speed limits there would be no road deaths anywhere in the world.


What a strange planet you live on, is it far away?
